The best source of information is right on the website. There is nothing that has gone by the community that thorium power has not taken notice of. thoriumpower.com All the questions you have right now can be answered by combing through the companies website. Thorium Power’s technology is not just to get rid of waste, as it seems you understand, right now its use for power generation is further along in testing and will be ready to market the soonest. This should be very visible if you scan the company’s press releases over the past year and the general info. The ability to rid waste is just an added bonus if governments wants to fully fund and go for it. As an investor, I’m more interested in the company signing deals with countries that want to go nuclear for the purposes of power generation, but don’t want to deal with plutonium and all the other global negatives that come with uranium based fuel. This is exactly what they are trying to do. To better understand what they are doing. Think of this company as having the patent for “unleaded gasoline”, but for nuclear.

You were advised to read the thread an almost infinite number of times. I do not understand why that is so hard for you to do. No one here is against sharing information. I spend a lot of time looking for it, and posting it to the thread. I simply asked you to read the posts. It is the action that speaks for itself, not the words. I belittled you on two occasions and each time provided a following post that was a partial answer to your questions. I doubt you even bothered to read them. The first was a statement of the Indian situation and the rather long time frame they face in getting a 'Thorium Only' based reactor operational. 2020 for first run is a bit far away. The second was an extensive evaluation of the last US Thorium endevour in Colorado. It outlined the significant problems encountered by a new technological design as it was brought into generation. ---a technology that uses current successful models is in a very good competitive situation---at least until 2020 or so, likely 2040. Both very significant points to the more informed individual. If you saw no relevance in these posts, then it simply proves you have not done the DD you keep chirping about.
