Gee. If only there were a simpler way to turn a turbine? Without nukes, we wouldn't have all the problems, deadly waste without end, "carbon offsets" needed to mine uranium and pour concrete, for examples, or finding a secure place to store the waste materials that doesn't need to use cat litter, and all the limitless list of problems to worry about, let alone have the taxpayer subsidize. Oh, and the plutonium.
