At first I was thinking, "Coming to a house near you; Meltdown America" or "Pets with 5 legs", but after reading the story it seems very interesting.
I'm always looking for ways to cut power use in my house, but I refuse to use the horror movie lighting given off by CF light bulbs. I don't care what the government mandates, I'm starting to stockpile incandescents in my basement. They'll have the cop'ers beating down my door to get my "evil" light bulbs.
This personal nuclear reactor looks like just the ticket. I like that fact that they found a way to create the reaction without the need for control rods to control the nuclear reaction and prevent melt-down.
My questions is where do they put the spend fuel.
Personally I think we need to start launching trash and bio/chem/nuke spent material into the Sun....(but I know I know that would be irresponsible.) sigh....
