Atomic energy technology, politics, and perceptions from a nuclear energy insider who served as a US nuclear submarine engineer officer

The Atomic Show #141 – Thorium and other atomic topics

September 23, 2009 By Rod Adams

Robert Hargraves, Charles Barton and Rod Adams talk about the Thorium Energy Alliance Conference and other miscellaneous atomic topics.

The conversation ranged from thorium, to uranium supplies, to chemistry versus engineering, to the history of Oak Ridge, to the unreality of energy solutions that require continuous cash transfers from the public to the developer.

    Whoa! Thanks for the shout-out to ELTs. (Keeping the pH just so– under the EOOW’s supervision of course.)

    That was an excellent show. Chock-full of history, past and future.
