The number of abandoned visits made because someone on site hasn't notified the gate, or some paper clip merchant can't be bothered to turn up for work on the day was something I lost count of. It would be so much easier if they stuck the reactor and heat exchangers half a mile away, left all the security personnel and other plonkers to guard the place. Then dropped a nice "safe" coal or gas fired boiler into position for the generators. I'm sure if everything was actually brought to the publics notice including the bottomless pit of taxpayers money used to line the pockets of those fighting "terrorism", nuclear would not be a consideration for the forseeable future. If anyone thinks energy is expensive, just look at the waste. Power is squandered and probably for the same reason we want nuclear power stations. No individual relates the expense to themselves personally. All those nice pretty lights in the cities and the new power station are a long way away from Ones personal meter reading. Resistance[Ohmic] generation is the true way forward! AB |

I'm still suggesting using the reactors from redundant submarines myself.

http://www.mattridley.co.uk/blog/why...s-so-much.aspx An interesting thought is that with a bunch of small reactors on one site, losing the power lines wouldn't hurt quite so much - leave one running to power the pumps on the rest, and don't burn all that diesel. You'd also be able to keep a flatter output, as you could cycle the maintenance around the site. I think I like the idea. Andy |

HE was an efficiency expert at the NHS which explains why the NHS wastes so much. If the NHS were as efficient as a residential property we could probably save 30,000 windmills. |
