"Adding in pre-application time with licensing certification period for the NRC
review of a new reactor certification is 7-20+ years ..."

Heck, it will take a first decade to get the science down and the NRC to even
start taking apps. Especially after Japan, no regulator will want to sign on
the dotted line. So, that is why he wants to get these big water heaters out
quickly, once regulators latch on, the gig is up.

These are important points, and I agree with everything here, except -- as I
said -- the last line:
By the time anyone gets to making
electricity or home heating units, it will be so deep in NRC regulation that
it may take decades to see the light of day.
Oh come now. Every company in every country will rush to make these things.
The Pentagon will understand that without this technology, the U.S. can be
defeated by Lichtenstein. There is no chance the NRC can hold back this
technology.
