Not the best promo for fission I've heard... didnt hear much about breeder reactors and some of the other waste-burning reactions currently being demonstrated in test reactors. Either way, I generally support nuclear fuel usage... being in a radiation feild myself... but I still not sure if I am ready to see my neighbors to have access to SNM ... but I was happy to see him point out transport of ram vs transport of just about every other hazardous material out there.

Coal power in the united states kills ~4-11 times more people per year from particulate pollution alone every single year than could ever die from Chernobyl.

So far 56 people have died from Chernobyl and you can extrapolate out to ~4000 deaths using the LNT model.

The audio is kinda jittery and this is distracting. Fixing it would be cool, if possible. Good talk though.

In the roughly half year since this was made a lot changed. He mentioned how people wanted to put off officially applying for a license because of the costs.

This is true, but they have since formally applied for such licenses.
