...mostly by fast, cheap and irreversible nuclear weapons disarmament. It's increasingly clear that we cannot afford to have arsenals of the type the US possesses fall into the hands of emotionally, intellectuallly and morally impaired individuals such as we are now observing.

The LAMPRE is the perfect swords to plough shares device.

There are many other features of the Lampre concept that strike me as vastly superior to other reactor concepts I've considered. This is particularly the case because of the grades of plutonium we now have that we did not have in 1961, twice through plutonium out of MOX fuel.

This thread is not the real place to discuss this though. I'm very busy the next few days, but propose to discuss this in a new thread along the same lines in either the E&E forum or science forum.

If you are interested in this topic, please look for a thread in one of these places.

Best regards.
