As you sit in the gas line or are looking for a station with gas, DON"T
you wish your car was powered by on of the small nuclear reactor like
those they have use to power satellites for decades?
I'm not sure I want to be driving around on several pounds of
plutonium.
Your comment reminds me of the safe pharmaceutical that had a 8000
gallon tan of Ethylene Oxide on the outside of the building wall. It
things went different and that thing exploded it would have taking out
the several acre building, and many of the surrounding homes.
OR
The tank farm a few miles from our house, It is the petroleum
distribution point for out area. There are over a dozen 240 thousand
gallon tanks. Imagine that thing getting out of hand.
There are many radioactive compounds other than Plutonium that could be
used in the "nuclear" electrical unit.
