Uranium: Safely and Efficiently Powering the Future

paulk: "Must've hit a liberal nerve there."

No, you hit a "partisan lemming posting useless rhetoric on an investment board" nerve.

And now the best you can do is ask "what about solar"? Please leave and don't come back until you have something substantive to offer. The fading hope for SeekingAlpha was that it would be a place for intelligent discourse on investments.

Uranium: Safely and Efficiently Powering the Future

paulk8756: "The D's in Washington are so removed from reality that our only hope for our immediate energy future is a resurgence of "red state" sanity."

Please take your partisan rhetoric off of seekingAlpha and to the Yahoo message boards where it belongs. Lemming.

Uranium: Safely and Efficiently Powering the Future

So fxtrader is willing to gamble that a tiny minority of scientists might be right and we should therefore burn fossil fuels with abandon. We will keep our fingers crossed that the increasing CO2 levels in the atmosphere (not seen on earth in the last million years) will have no effect.

While I won't get into an argue with you and your "credible" scientists, you overlook a very simple issue - we must have nuclear power. The price of oil is skyrocketing, ditto for coal and all other dirty sources of energy. Oil production has effectively plateaued and will start to decline in the next 5-10 years.

We need ever more terawatts of power and we're not going to get it from coal/oil/gas. Only U has the energy density and supply to power us for another 50-100 years while we diligently work on new energy sources and conservation.

Yes, I wish I could plug my house into a tree but I can't. Nobody particularly wants nuclear power but it is a reality that must be embraced.

"any outbreak of a larger mud vulcano somewhere in the ocean will kill ALL CO2 reduction effects achieved with hundreds of billions of wasted money"

Facile and erroneous.
