2. It sounds as if the Moltex technology will hopefully be sold.

From what little I've seen of it, it's interesting.

I do think we need to consider regulations built around the LNT. When I first began considering nuclear issues some 40 years ago, after Chernobyl, I was one of those "there is no safe level of radioactivity" morons. It took many years of study to cause me to change my mind.

I know I have some ideas of which Nick Touran might not approve, but let me be clear that I respect him enormously.

This said I think that the risk of not using radioactive materials to address profound environmental issues outside of nuclear issues, justifies the risk that nuclear materials may escape and cause harm. I want environmental matrices, water, air, and soils,with attached chemical toxic or mechanical toxicology issues to be exposed in continuous flow technology.
