But an reactor can make cheap electricity which will drive your hybrid ... running on fuel cells powered by methane gas <GG> Petro chemicals can be made from methane also and are not a big % of the available crude oil.--- OOPS crude above $51 - nuti nuts

Would appreciate to know what we can define REAL MONEY

Sure you can. Ammonia just need high temperature N2 and H2. H2 can easily be created from electrolysis of water, the reactor produces more than enough heat.

The synthesis of plastics is only a little harder, plants already use CO2 to create organic molecules, and electric vehicles already exist.

All you need is an energy source, not a petro chemical source.

I was on a transport in 1985 that *was* powered by a nuclear reactor. It was way cool. Here's a pic of the actual beast before it was scrapped a few years ago.

>>Neither can you drive cars, trucks, trains etc. etc. with a reactor under the hood<<

You certainly can indirectly....electrical cars, with the electricity provided by nuclear power plants.
