I would say I'm in the pro-camp as well. Although I'm not that knowledgeable in some of the finer details of reactor technology, so it's hard to really cement myself on one side or the other. But yeah, the article mentioned the fact that nuclear energy has the least number of deaths per kilowatt of power. I find that one of the most surprising things about nuclear power. Nuclear power has even saved 1.8 million lives according to NASA. The startling lack of fatalities due to nuclear was what really made me re-think my stance. I remember reading a little article about Thorium reactors being some kind of miracle nuclear reactor. I should go back and read up on that a little bit. Do you happen to know anything about Thorium?
