Things appear to be happening across the big pond and our British buddies look to be stealing the march on us. Keep up the good work guys.... some one has to do it and we Americans are saddled with the "Grifter in chief" and wont be able to do anything to help until hes gone.

She came to a bad end after becoming Lady Dedlock in
Bleak House, I'm afraid.

Yep. Week after week after week. Oh yeah, she did have a little help from some guy in a funny hat.

Wonderful technology. I wonder which country is going to get their act together first, and go full tilt with this.

Man, I was addicted to those TV spy shows. Especially to Mrs. Peel and her Lotus.

FYI 80% of major inventions and technical breakthroughs originated in Great Britain but almost without exception were DEVELOPED in the USA because investment funds were available here to do so.
Brits have the brains but not the money.
We have some of both though these days I’m no longer so sure about our national brainpower - or perhaps what we do with it.

Interesting. Thanks for sharing your insights, dear FARS!

Ouch!
Sorry, I passed out upon seeing that pic and immediately thought of the episode where she wears a spike dog collar.

Be nice if the US led on the adoption of this benign and beneficial technology. Perhaps we will, once we boot all of the damn Socialists out of office.

Okay, what's the Greenies' "GOTCHYA!" to kill them, once $everal ten$ of billion$ have been invested to get the first dozen or so almost online?

Popular Science has an article about Thorium power in its July 2011 issue. Here is an excerpt that will give my fellow Freepers something to think about:
"Even with military and corporate support, the transition to a new type of nuclear power generation is likely to be slow, at least in the U.S. Light-water reactors are already established, and no regulations exist to govern other reactor designs."
Thorium reactors can be built small and be numerous. They can have power capabilities as little as 50 megawatts and can be safely built close to the end user. With Thorium reactors closer to the user, transmission losses are greatly reduced. Such losses can be up to 30 percent with present power plants. No need for expensive superconductive transmission technology to accomplish long distance transmission requirements. Such, by the way, are envisioned for large windmill and solar array farms forced by regulation to be far from populated areas.
It is apparent that the foot dragging in this nation's energy needs is the U.S. Congress and Senate who put more energy into devising ways to regulate our energy production than the energy that is created. I recently asked my U.S. Congressman if he ever heard of Thorium power. He did not have a clue.

She generates energy from this old fossil , but my co2 level increases. Notice how the lightbulb lights brightly, yet her outfit is obviously cool.

There’s also plasma arc, which vaporizes waste of all kinds.

Wow! Thanks for posting. I saw the original Rubbia patents in the ‘90’s and always wondered if someone was working on them. I knew when I saw them that if this technology worked out, we would be living in a different world. I just wished the darn thing was in California and not in England.

The plasma arc torch technology is meeting much government resistance and protests from environmentalists who do not understand the technology. They think that the process will emit dioxins and excess CO2. All of such fears are only good for the politicians who care only to sell their favors to the highest bidder.
