Hi Jamesqf 10 -13 - 2008 I like the thorium breeder reactor with a nuclear waste blanket, but it will not be mass produced before 2023, perhaps never. We do not have consensus on which nuclear power plant technology we should go with.
Likely we do not have even till 2013 to show that the USA has a future. Much of the rest of the world will collapse economically with the USA in my opinion. We know how to build wind turbines, we have the World's best wind corridor from West Texas, North to Canada. We need about ten 1000 mile HVDC = high voltage direct current power lines to move about 22% of our power needs from the wind corridor to major population centers. If we start soon with the enthusiasm which put 12 men on the moon, some of the rest of the world will believe that USA has a future, other than 3d world country. The new Neil
