All your delaying does is prove that you indeed have no point to make and are the real troll on here.

Thanks for piping up, idiot.

Yes, nuclear has a lot of “waste” to deal with but or Nuclear friends in France have been dealing with that issue for over 3 decades with recycling plants. Our friends to the North (canadia) have been building what they call heavy water plants or fast fission reactors which can make use of the Pu 239 and U 238 isotopes that are either produced or already in the fuel meat of conventional nuclear power plants. The recycled fuel can be reused. What we considered “spent fuel” really isn’t. It’s just so far down the cahin that we can not create enough reactivity in the core to sustain a critical reactor. But there is plenty of U 235 left that can be recycled, processed and used in new fuel. The byproducts and natural U 235 can be used in heavy water reactors. I forget the waste reduction in this process but it is quite significant. A recycling system with several new nuclear plants can help bridge the gap because I really truely belive that scientists are close to a sustained fussion reaction. By close I mean within the next 100 years.

The grid is a pretty much a disaster as it stands. A lot of waste is involved in just transmission. Power plants get paid for the energy that hits the grid not that is transmitted. Although High voltage power lines cut this down significantly a lot of power is wasted on the user end through worn, faulty, and/or outdated equipment.

I read a lot into the idea of “clean coal” and carbon capture. There are a lot of awesome ideas for algea farms related to coal plants emmissions. The algea can be turned into bio diesel and other products used in medical and other bio based sciences. Clean coal just means that you won’t die if you live near one. It still pumps out tons of CO2 per hour. I forget which university is working on the algea idea but if they get some incentives and help with funding it could be a realistic solution for the short-term.

The fuels we are using expensive?? That depends what kind of fuel you are talking about. For example Gas turbine plants cost roughly $60 per MW/h Coal is closer to $14-30 MW/h and nuclear is around $22-28 MW/h Gas is freggin expensive but coal and nuclear are far from it. Coal jsut has sulfer dioxides, NOx, CO, and CO2 to worry about.

I don’t mind discussing things with people who can have a discussion about this but I am not jumping on the band wagon that DieA has a clue. Because she doesn’t. Very good at twisting words and coming up with alternate meanings. Way to go DieA, I do hope you become a lawyer soon! I’m not being sarcastic.

Or were you referring to you and your fellow asshat as the purveyors of said dickcheese mr ‘magnus calls us names so he’s an immature shitface’ who doesn’t even see the idiocy of that stance even separate from the idiocy of his attempt at any other stance here?

How am I wrong here? How is this climate ANYTHING other than the exact opposite of the red scare?

No answer?

No surprise.

Oh yeah, we are in control now!

The only people that seem to be calling Obama a messiah of any kind are the republicans, acting as if he can’t fix everything in his first six months that he is a failure. Oprah might have called him “the one” but shes dumb as a box of rocks. That makes it republicans and Oprah… Hmmmm.
