25% efficiency? Seems very low.

Very high, to me, given its tidal, not pumped.

Err ... it's a floating nuke

Oh. That one. Well 37% is top thermal efficiency on most steam turbine
plant with BIG condensers, so 25% sounds OK for a steam turbine built to

And not be too massive.

Those who want slavery should have the grace to name it by its proper
name. They must face the full meaning of that which they are advocating
or condoning; the full, exact, specific meaning of collectivism, of its
logical implications, of the principles upon which it is based, and of
the ultimate consequences to which these principles will lead. They must
face it, then decide whether this is what they want or not.
