I am not disagreeing with him via energy proposals, His proposals are not compliant with the current view of "renewable energy" view of energy being ideologically correct. He would be pelted in the streets, today, and over at Reddit, his view, denigrated, and actually was over in Futurology, + Energy Discussions. For myself, I am all about what the engineers produce. If we can do it with solar, lets. If solar and wind are somehow unreachable, fine, safer nukes (if we can even do that!).

I had never heard of anything beyond uranium or plutonium, before this. I am doubtful of ever getting molten salt reactors, sodium moderated reactors. or even fluoride moderated reactors. For sodium as Scientific American said: "Sodium burns upon contact with air, and explodes upon contact with water." For Michael Moore, had he even considered fission (any prototype) he would literally be lynched by his Party cohorts. I support anything that has a chance of solving energy and environment issues. Count on Moore and his fellows to ignore fission for ideological reasons. Mitch I disagree with your assessment of Moore. If he had been worried about political blow-back (from the left), he wouldn't have produced the film.
