the “Age of Nuclear Madness”

And also like belbear said ……a heavy hydrogen addition to the mix to create a neutron emitting version may be the best bet for both waste remediation and also to get fusion to “crank over” and begin to fuse p+B11. Deutrium may be the best bet for so-called “lighter fluid on the charcoal” to make things burn.

Neutrons are more trouble than they’re worth. The only way to extract energy from neutron flux is with fission cascades producing heat, which requires the whole thermal power cycle to extract electricity, with its 30% efficiency rating.

Forget fission. It’s a wasteful and dirty technology compared to fusion.
