Joe, All forms of alternative energy are not steady state and require storage of some form. It requires all kind of control systems. The power sources of nature are so defuse that collection is mega wide spread and so is whatever form of storage. To increase the efficiency all kind of exotic chemistry with new compounds never before created would be developed. Engineering is about selecting the best alternative. Nuclear Power is the cheapest, cleanest Zero operational pollution method to generate power with amazing demonstrate continuous 24x7 production. Here in New England environmental retardation dictated mbte be added to gasoline. Now hundreds of square miles of ground water is polluted for no one nos how many hundreds of years. How does one detect mbte, with expensive labratory chemical analysis. How does one detect radiation, With a Gieger counter that anyone can afford. The only other way to produce power is to burn something. Tons and Tons of waste product. Coal has all kind of contaminants. As to the Pentagon, have you seen any really high resolution pictures. If you saw the picture would you understand what the mean? If you want to see high resolution, the highest available on the net. Tom Watson's Remember Page. watman.com also pbase.com I do believe the sum of the thickness of the flat walls at the Pentagon that were not penetrated is less than the curved walls of a reactor containment. Also getting a square on hit to a curved surface is far more difficult and even that would not penetrate in my opinion. tom watson tosiwmee
