Like a good Freeper, I have not yet read the column; however, mixing nuclear with pressure...what could possibly go wrong?
Like trying to push 2 magnets together that repel eachother, the fusion stuff repels each side as well, the reaction stops.
With Fission, it is like trying keep 2 magnets apart that want to go together. When all hell breaks loose, they go together and generate a runaway fission reaction like what happened at 3 Mile Island, Chernobyl and Fukushima.
