Solar isn't bad, but the batteries required to make it a useful option for full time use are pretty friggin' brutal.

I'm pro nuke for the most part. Smart nuclear, safe nuclear. Gravity fed emergency cooling versus generators like Fukushima...perfect.

Just figure out what to do with the deadly **** when we're done with it. Don't just throw it in to Yucca Mountain because we've already spent billions making a hole in the ground on top of a fault line.
