Elelctric cars are boring right??

I worked for 11 years in the nuclear power industry in the Navy. Modern nuclear power is very safe, and the waste is nothing compared to other industrial waste. You can run a reactor for 20 years and then store all the waste generated in a swimming pool on site. The Japan reactor was a very old design, as was Chernobyl. It's like comparing the technology in a model T to Cummins Ram. Imagine if we were actually pursuing new reactors over the last 30 years how much better they would be by now.
