| The energy chrisis is simpler to solve that many think. We have a fine source of energy - plutonium. Nuclear power is *much* safer than people think, and can be disposed of very safely. Either way it's a whole lot less deadly than wars in the midle east.
The major obsticals to energy utopia:
(1) Battary technology. Battary tech blows - most of it's 15 years old. We need longer lasting and lighter battaries.
(2) Public fear of nuclear power. When the first nuclear plants were made it was the "wild west" of nuclear power. There was little oversight and accadents happened. There is much more controll and it is very safe. That perception will correct with time.
Fixed ideas are like a cramp in the foot - the best remedy against it is to tread on it.
