Edited by: Slate Shoa on 25/08/2010 02:29:35 Dear people who think nuclear power hurts the Earth's environment more than coal:
Please read this article: A Second Look at Nuclear Power by Paul Lorenzini, "a retired PacifiCorp executive and former general manager of contract operations at DOEÆs nuclear defense facilities in Hanford, Washington."
If you don't trust my link, search google for the article.
Summary: Paul Lorenzini starts out discussing the outcomes of the renewable energy source movement. Paul shows that the renewable energy source movement has made worse the problems which it aimed to erase, and actually increased the use of fossil fuel energy sources. An estimate of the public fatalities from the use of fossil fuels is given, and then a comparison to nuclear power is given. Paul talks about "environmentalists" and their contradictory stance of opposing nuclear power. Mr. Lorenzini then tries to explain the reasons for historically fierce opposition to development of nuclear power in the United States. Paul then talks about the nuclear-power-plant and waste-disposal regulation roadblocks facing the development of nuclear power. Lastly, Paul explains what needs to be done before nuclear power is set for unimpeded development.

Nuclear still has a fatal flaw....
NIMBY.
without NIMBY there would be more of them.

I would freaking build my own personal nuclear reactor in the basement and flip the birdy to all power companies if I could get the permits for its construction and operation.

me too. Most particularly the part where when the power goes out, my house will still have lights 
Oh yeah, and i suppose extra income from selling power to the grid might be nice. edit nuclear computer power supply anyone?

Let's not forget, personal nuclear reactors are essential for comfortable living in case of a Zombie Apocalypse !

This is true. When the apocalypse is caused by nuclear radiation, I will own a nuclear power plant to protect myself...

Hey man dont joke about that...
when the Nvidia Geforce 785GTX comes out odds are it will need a nuclear power supply to run the card or the liquid helium plant to cool it. or both.

Edited by: Lance Fighter on 25/08/2010 05:22:49 Damnit! Im out of fission batteries. Oh well, hope these micro-fusion cells hold up until I can raid the super-duper mart again..

Originally by: ceaon
i go for coal because trees can fix/recycle the crap this coal leave in teh air but until today i don't know if anyone managed to fix/recycle the radioactive waste,
I haven't heard of any plants that remove polutants like mercury from the environment. I like sushi, but mercury pollution from burning coal has pushed the mercury levels high enough that I think twice before indulging in tuna these days. Plus there's the continual low level radiation being dumped out of smokestacks from coal stations.
Sorry, anything but coal is the way to go.

Are you guys talking about unlicensed nuclear accelerators? If so, don't cross the streams... it would be bad...
