I never heard of a new type of reactor. It is really too bad there is such fear of nuclear power. It really has a lot of advantages.

Hydrogen costs too much to make. We'll probably see ethanol powered cars before we see hydrogen. Or, we build a couple thousand nuclear power plants and run everything off of batteries

ethanol is a scam. It costs more energy to make it than you get out of it. It's just something politicians support to grease the farm bloc in the middle west.

The nuclear option is possible but will take a great change in public attitudes. There is a reactor type (never put in production, killed by the Clinton administration) that doesn't produce highly radioactive waste.

Dick
