And so it becomes sort of being able to build a lot of these SMRs, which are smaller and can be closer to the data centers.

MSRs? Yeah.

MSRs? Yeah.

Isn't there a practicality issue, though, because corrosion is a problem with that process, right?

Well, with temperatures that high, can't you generate electricity that is more robust, for lack of a better term, and that can travel farther distances without loss?

But isn't the issue here partly like there's two streams of technology battling each other? In other words, demand for energy, right? Like in the year 2060, there's gonna be 12,230 streaming services alone, right? Okay, you're gonna have house plants that self-water, self-fertilize and can talk to you, right? I hope so. Can we, in all seriousness, can you keep up with that

with these lazy fusion people that clearly aren't pushing the envelope and just are phoning it in. No, in all seriousness, so can we develop energies fast enough to keep up with these incredible demands that are- But we have become more efficient.

But the advance is, I mean, there are guilt-inducing mirrors that are going to come out soon where you just stand in front of it and say, really, that's what you want to eat? Like, so, I seem to hit a nerve with you on that one. So... Or are you talking about your own life?

In all seriousness, can the technology that's needed, is it there to keep up with the demands and the new demands that we haven't even foreseen yet?

But isn't that part of the issue is the geopolitical concerns of this, right? The more we come up with this great technology and SMRs that feed these data centers, there's a lot of uranium out there, but they're not in every country. And some of these countries are borderline sort of friendly countries. Terrorists take over.

So how do you factor that in and should some other simultaneous technology be developed away from nuclear energy so that we're not so dependent on uranium and the potential- Yeah, do you have a hotline to the State Department?
