I second this sentiment. Also with the work that Idaho National Lab is doing with modular reactors, we could reasonably start mass production within a decade. The upfront costs are in the millions, not billions, and last 40 years. When it runs low, pop it out for a new one. Game changing. It's not an American invention. However, those cutting edge technologies are being heavily funded out in Idaho.

I also like the idea of capturing the steam excess from reactors and replacing industrial heating applications or city service heating. Nothing wasted. Use it all.
