I'm afraid that until someone comes up with a new name for these energy producing systems that does not include the word "NUKE-u-lar", the ignorant fear mongers will scream and holler louder than a record breaking football crowd.

MRI = Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

It used to be called NMR Imaging - Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging.

The word "nuclear" had to be dropped because people freaked. They thought they were being irradiated like a bomb. And of course, nothing the doctors said about it being safe meant a damn. After all, what do those pesky glasses wearing scientific types know anyway.

Maybe call it a "thorium battery" or something and we might, MIGHT start getting somewhere.

There are solutions, but the Novum Aevum Obscurum holds us back.

Thanks for posting the video. I'll be following up on this idea.

Brian
