It is best to move slowly and with sufficent testing before moving to large scale applications.
In the meantime we need to keep the economy moving and the only way to do that is expand the domestic production of proven energy sources. Fossil fuels and Nuclear power.

I see what you mean...but that has a
direct impact on lives. There's no cutting corners involved with what I want the gov't to do. I just want them to stop talking, and DO something. Things keep advancing...too quickly for debate. Because now we'll have to debate the new tech...oh, damn -- here's something new we have to debate about...and the partisan bickering is driving me mad!!
For better or worse, I want things done quickly. Don't get me wrong: I don't want them to cut corners or deliever a poor system...so perhaps I should have said "As soon as possible". I'm of the opinion that if there is another great war; it is going to be over energy/oil. I don't want our country to have chips in that game...so I want out
now, even if that means taking a leap of faith before mapping out the jump.
