Where's my fusion powered flying car?! HUH?! WHERE IS IT?!?!!
On a more serious note, can we please start building nuclear plants in this country again? And hey, since cold fusion is a pipe dream that ain't gonna happen unless we find some loophole in the laws of physics, can we couple a fission reactor with a catalytic warm fusion reactor and make all that waste heat work FOR us?
Get on it.
Pretty please.

A few years ago, one of the few and unsung good things the Bush Administration did was try to loosen up the regulatory and insurance problems, but even if he was successful at it (it kinda dropped off my radar) it will still take half a decade or more for that to translate into activity.

[2] If it isn't a 100% solution, it isn't worth implementing even if it solves 90% of the problem. My understanding of the nuclear power thing is it could potentially solve about 30% of our power needs in the next few years, but that's it. Seems to me 30% is better than nothing but some people are unreasonable.
