NK and Iran do not have breeder reactors. They just have "clasic" reactors who are better at producing fuel for bombs. As for the explosions let me put it this way: If the reactors explode I think the GIs in South Korea and Iraq are going to have a nice "tan" as well, therfore I think the NK and Iran nuclear tehnology is one of the safest.;)
The Phenix and SuperPhenix worked outside the lab. Fusion never worked outside a lab and even then never produced more energy that was put in to "ignite" it. The Phenix and SuperPhenix prooved to be unreliable. On developing a breeder we xurrently face more of an engineering problem than theoretical problem. They can be made reliable with a minimal investement (considering the ods) in research.
True energy is a global problem but the likes of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, Libya, Burma, Chechnya will have plutonium even if US does not like that. Pakistan already have it! So does North Korea and soon many will.
Don't vote the republicans and maybe US will sign the Kyoto threaty and when gasoline is going to cost 4.5$ per galon (like in europe) Mr Tinyknob will be bancrupt in no time if he still try to impress people with the suv.
Build more nuclear reactors. Develop a working plutonium breeder (invest money in research). Drive down the prices on solar and wind (a wind turbine that can be manufacured in 300-400$ cost 2-3K$). Move out of teh suburbia. Start buying from local shops instead of driving to Walmarkt. Move closer to your working place even if the rent is 20% higher. Use the bike more often (is healty, environmental friendly and cheaper). Recycle. Increase the thermal efeciency of your home (better insulation....). Get a VIA C3 or Crusoe instead of the P4. Get a hybrid car or a diesel. And most important DON'T VOTE BUSH! PLEASE!!!!!!!!!
I quote for the article:
" Although it is a crystalline solid, it can 'flow' like the most slippery liquid imaginable - in fact, like a liquid with no viscosity."
Then how can you tell it is really solid. Also from what I remember from my highschool physiscs helium does not have a solid agregation state and if it was so trivial to obtain it by just compressing it to 60 atm I wonder why nobody figure it out until 2004.;)
I have to break the hard news to you but:
1. Taiwan does NOT have any nuclear capabilities.
2. US will probably not get involved and if they do with a single aircraft carrier group they better not. The chineese government has quite an impresive air capability, anti ship missiles, and a nice fleet purchased from the Russians.
3. What makes you think that the rest of the world will embargo China?

It will still have enogh material to build a smaller bomb.
will you ship to Afganistan?
When I'll see a dozen of IBM consultants aproaching I'll start shooting.
Pretty good software? Like OS/400?

Cannot agree more!!
Don't expect gasoline to be this cheep for long either.
The best way is to overthrow the current government system and move to something civilized but ubfortunately we have to settle for for the Democrats.

Invest money in plutonium breeding technology or a thorium nuclear reactor because uranium will run out as well.

Ye. Those terorists look really ruged.
How about militias or partisans? Are they terorists as well? Was the french resistance wearing uniforms when fighting against the germans in ww2?
Where a RIAA uniform and nobody will try to mug you for the iPod. You might get beat up but that is another story.
Try to get a weapon in Germany! But at least the crime is very low. Especialy street crime.
I often take a LAW with me.
Is this befiting for a slashdot article? What are the moderators doing? Is this the 1st of April or something?
True. It is too far from the sun.
The main risk is that Rosseta might get blown away by the gases evaporating from the core.
