Michael Segal: The Thor Approach to National Security - '...Thorium reactors are an engineering project with an uncertain result, just like the moon project decades ago. But a serious effort in this direction, coupled with an offer to share technology with others, will send two important messages. One message will be to people in countries like Iran, saying that we will help them enter the future that they say they desire. The second message will be to oil producers, warning those who hold back oil that its value may be undercut by our efforts to "wield technology's wonders".'
