  14.  @waynemcleod6767  The Year was 1980 -- as it was an election year. Mid-year Congress cut thorium funding. The fast breeder reactor program went so insanely over budget that it was later cut, too. The Soviets cut their funding within 90-days of the American Congress. This was all 41-years ago. The Soviets admitted - off the record -- that the only thing keeping them funded was the fear that the USA would discover a work-around and wow the world. Looking at the American track record, well, it's easy to see why that was an instant sell. I was a kid back then, with my full astounding mental acuity. Now, my photographic memory is fading. ( Would you believe that Wonderlic rated me as non-human? 8+ S.D. above the mean? Now all that I can do is point to the professional literature. Yes, Wonderlic had a brain freeze over my test score. Then their detectives revealed my academic record -- and it was freaky.  What kind of cume is shipped in boxes? Yes, just one-box would not do. But, a kid's academic record is supposed to be in a file folder -- not reading as War & Peace. So, the boxes had to rest atop all other records. One out of ten-million it was. Very, very, freaky) You want to screen for late 1980 early 1981 -- (I could be wrong, long odds, I know) -- and MSBR. Molten Salt Breeder Reactors. Back then I was big into atomic chemistry.  I'm the fellow behind the 1995 Chemistry Nobel ... Rowland was my professor and he picked up the ball I handed him. As expected, he won a Nobel -- and wrote me out of history. I had a moral choice: sit on Freon and kill millions and imperil life on Earth -- or give a Nobel to Rowland. You might note that today's politicians are aping Freon-exclusion. (al Gore)
