Kinds of surprised no one has posted that. But then, I bet the vast majority of you people weren't even alive what that came out.

Funny none-the-less. :-)

AAAhhhhahahahahahah!

Really... it's already been done.

ROFLMAO!

FUN FACT: You didn't even RTFA.

That's like saying that since a warehouse built 40 years ago, without sprinklers or adequate evacuation routes and subsequently killed people, we should never build another one.

Anit-nuke people ARE acting irrationally, including you, as your post shows.

I only perused TFA but it seems to me that the what is back on is IBM nailing SCO to the wall.

There are plenty of NIMBY complaints over local generators like solar and wind turbines.

That's nice, but I was talking about small nuke generators. You, know, the topic of this entire story?

Stop taking it so personally. ...crickets...as in WTF are you talking about?

All the rest of your rant...

If you would just take time to RTFA you'd know that one of the features of small nuke generators is that they are fueled at the plant and then shipped to the site. Further, when it's time to refuel, they are shipped back and it's done at the plant.

The rest of your rant is completely irrelevant to the topic.

So, ladies and gentleman, I give you AmiMoJo, a confirmed Nuke Hater.

What part of Small and Modular did you not understand?

The whole point of small and modular is to be able to manufacture these things in a plant and ship them to a location.

Actually, I don't think NIMBY is a factor simply because no one has yet to produce such a device, propose to install it somewhere, and then generate the hypothetical NIBY reaction.

These devices face an intrenched anti-nuclear lobby that trades off of ignorance and fear. In other words, the nuke Haters. If ever such a device was ready to be deployed, the nuke Haters would be at every hearing, file endless lawsuits and finally, pull some kind of OWS garbage to delay the actual deployment.

In my opinion, any person who has been adequately informed of the device's safety measures and economic benefits would not be bothered by having one installed at their local power plant.
