delt0r, interesting points. Regarding giant waves, I’ll mention that since LFTRs aren’t water-cooled, you can put them in the high desert if you want to. I think that’s also true of IFRs, but have to check.

Zapkitty, the worst nuclear accident ever still killed less people than coal does every year. If you’re concerned about climate change, I’m curious what your backup plan is, in the event fusion doesn’t work. We’re all agreed that if we get good news from Lerner next year, we can drop fission like yesterday’s news.
