That is incredible. Nice work. Most people can’t begin to understand the difficulty of what you’ve done here. Very impressive.

It doesn’t make me wonder about anything…and who are some of the smartest people?

Did you write dog to avoid writing god in your comment?

Dude. Perhaps you’re different but know that your being different is a great thing for all of us. Your differences mean we’re more likely to survive as a species and prosper. But it’s a heavy burden to bear…thanks for being who you are - I’m glad you’re here.

“Immabe hones witchoo…”

Isn’t this one of the only drugs in history to be approved AFTER the review committee recommended NOT approving it. If it’s the same drug I read about it’s been lobbied for zealously…even though nearly everyone unanimously voted against it…(I guarantee I’ve messed up some of these reports because - never mind.

I think the abundant fossil fuels led to advancement, but without coal, oil and nat gas, very few innovations are possible. Steel, silicon wafers, ICE tech - all BECAUSE we had cheap fuels, not because we had technology. There have been innovations, but if you were dealing with wood chips for fuel, most of what we have today is not possible.

I’d argue that it’s not will, it’s money. Speaking as an absolute idiot in all things nuclear, and with zero expertise in energy subjects of any sort, I’ll bet the legacy fossil fuel industry was a part of the effort to vilify nuclear, went to great lengths to gin up fear after some near-catastrophes and led the call for hyper regulation and greater “safety procedures” to hamper construction. I have absolutely no proof, have no documentation and zero evidence to support my outlandish claims, but it wouldn’t be the first time one mega industry sullied the reputation of another that it perceived as a threat. Follow the money. Oil, coal and natural gas would lose billions of dollars if nuclear power took off and replaced just a fraction of the fossil fuel industry’s death grip on America. Will power? Come on, man. It’s not like people were sitting around a table and sighing in frustration because nuclear SEEMED hard…”Godh, this seems really really hard…,” it BECAME hard, it was MADE difficult, it was over regulated and it’s dangers were hyped to ensure that it was hysterically feared. But that wasn’t by accident - that was by design. When there’s THAT much money to lose, things don’t happen by accident. No facts, actual documentation nor other legitimate technical or industry references were used in the development of this pessimistic, anti-capitalist screed. Any similarity to any well-articulated thesis, hypothesis or argument, living or dead is purely coincidental.*

I’m not sure tech can solve the problem of a 24,000 year half life problem of Plutonium 239. That’s more of a physics thingy.
