Ideas in Progress

The Instapundit has seen an article on Toshiba's home nuclear reactor design and wants to know where he can order one. I'd suggest he start here. Given his internet celebrity status, I wonder if they'd loan him a demonstration model to review. I'd also suggest to anyone who gets one that you take advantage of the reactor's waste heat and bury it under your driveway. That way you'll never have to shovel snow off your driveway again.

The article says that the reactor could be used to power apartment buildings, city blocks, or isolated communities. One application seemed conspicuous by its absence.
