Heard some interesting stuff on a company touting thorium electrical generating plants the other day. Seems the research was done at Oak Ridge, but was written off because you couldn’t build nuclear weapons from it. Sounded promising

Thats what ,I read and this technology was not used,The Chinese are basing their next generation of power plants on this and expect to have some online in 5 years, Now we will watch them go after the thorium supplies.
