Just to clarify, Thorium is a vital path, it is just not the pie-in-the-sky story that the guy is telling. If fact, the Chinese have rejected the technology that he is promoting.

Titus, did you see what your GENI org is really about? Do you really think they are promoting nuclear power? Q/A from their site.

How do we provide sufficient electricity for everyone in an ecologically sustainable way?

A: First, understand that there is no energy scarcity. The renewable energies (wind, solar, hydro, geothermal, tidal and biomass) are abundant far beyond our needs — and several are now cost competitive. So, tap renewable resources in remote sites (where they are usually found), and move the power via high-voltage transmission lines, which now can reach 7000 kilometers, connecting nations and continents.

Thorium, is this the (ahem) second cousin to Goreum, the element with the symbol "BS" that populates the halls of Congress and the White House, is gaseous at room temperature and in front of cameras, not to mention endowed with the capacity to empty taxpayer wallets at an astonishing rate. Cf., Clintonium, Carterineum, and the new noxious elemental gas known as Obamatium.

Just asking.
