Recap of last weeks posts 9/21 to 9/27

A rather quiet week.  Some highlights include an old one already on the "Best of" list:

The Atomic Bomber Five Part YouTube Series   That one was about molten-salt reactors.  The molten-salt reactor could have kept America at the very top of the heap, but that opportunity was lost.


It follows a train of thought that I've had about why our society is failing.  The molten-salt reactor and the end of the Apollo Program are major clues as to why we are failing--- there was no good reason for it at all, just a sudden reversal in philosophies.  One that would have led to the stars versus the one that will take us back to the swamps.  A turn of phrase there, in case you didn't follow it.  Reverse that and you get nearly a word for word quote from one of Ronald Reagan's speeches--- "from the swamps to the stars", he said.
