I have actually never seen that Jane Fonda movie “The China Syndrome” for the same reason I never watched “The Day After”...should I take time to watch it? (or will it make me grit my teeth?)
1) I agree that thorium reactors have the potential to be superior to pressurized or boiling water uranium reactors. I object to the notion, though, that PWR/BWR are inherently very dangerous, a notion that is very widespread. I do not impute that notion to you.
2) Don’t waste your time with those movies. They were made purely to propagandize falsehoods. They also weren’t made very well ... “The Day After” was really bad ...
