Angelwolf, as far your question as to why I'm against nuclear power. ..

First, I should clarify that I'm personally against nuclear for myself only. I'm not against nuclear power in general. If I were a server admin I would not ban it. So just wanted to clear that up.

I'm against nuclear power personally because I find it to be 1) incredibly time consuming to get to the final product, 2) physically imposing to setup with full safety measures (for instance, with 3-thick reinforced stone walls), 3) physically inconvenient since you have a central power source and have to run cables everywhere, and 4) a maintenance nightmare, constantly having to feed it uranium after each cycle.

So for me, I'm more interested in HV Solar Arrays. In one day I setup a factory to make them, and I get one HV Solar Array every hour - I now have more than I'll ever need. I can put them wherever I need one, and there's no maintenance. Chain enough MFSUs together and no matter what you have running off of it nighttime is not an issue.

Plus, I find nuclear power setup (much like Gem Armor vs Nano Armo) to be an intellectual exercise. No one will sway anyone's opinion, so they just go round and round about it.
