Wow, Mike... don't you think they know that it's not.

So if its cheap, why are they pulling the plug?
Because one accident like this costs way more than the savings. And
displaces thousands if not millions.

Does it really cost more than all the savings for 50 years between
accidents?

Think about that - just for a moment.


And that interval will get longer. Keeping it away from shore in a
country that has tsunamis isn't that hard.


Of course, we all know that the only threat is tsunamis...


Clean... those rods will need to be kept clear of anyone for 40
thousand years. So you realize that civilzation has not been around
that long. What language will they be speaking then. Will the warning
to the entrance be understood...

It won't take us 100 years to figure out how to get the remaining
energy out of them, if we try to do it at all.

You might be right about that. I suspect you are. So long as nothing
happens in the 100 years...
