So back to thorium reactors - I thought if anyone had built one it would have been Macro

That would be good backup power for my farm.
At this moment I am considering small Stirling engine or steam turbine generator, something small below 1kw running on limitless wood supply. Steam turbine seems to be the easiest to build based on bladeless Tesla design.
Just to recharge lithium battery banks when sun and weather do not cooperate.

AC power from the grid may cost me 60k or more, so off the grid is most reasonable option.

I thought your farm was drought declared at one stage. Doesn't that mean that water would be limited? Is there some sort of cooling tower included as part of your design to keep that water?

As you know thorium molten salt reactors don't need so much water, this is why Gobi desert is ideal place for them.

BTW do you know that the quiest best performing submarines in the war games were not those nuclear powered but Swedish using
Stirling engines.

Oi FN,

You tend to read things too literally don't you.

When they said Macro's place was a rainbow short of a thunderstorm I don't think they was talkin' about the weather, eh, eh, know what I mean ??

Please stay on track. As one super-intelligent scientist to another, I was providing help for your Tesla steam turbine meant to power your farm when there is no sun or wind. Don't get side-tracked with this thorium stuff.

We were talking about power for your farm. Macroscien in the bush, not Thorium in the Gobi.

I'm not having a thorium reactor. Nobody knows what the long term effects are.....

(just trying to carry on where the other thread left off)

Can you just post some info from instagram or snapchat? I can't follow what you are saying.

Is the spike protein in the actual virus dangerous, or does it only become craptotoxic when its part of a government vaccine? Oh, sorry, you fooled me there.... wrong topic. Mods delete please.
