re: 'Megatons to Megawatts': Turning Nuclear Arsenals into Carbon-Free Nuclear Electricity
sum
> two birds with one stone

That is of course the great attraction to the idea.  It is politically savvy.  However, 1) nuclear power is its own disaster, and we probably should not be encouraging it even in the case of destroying nuclear weapons and 2) this solution destroys the possibility of the A#1 best solution which is nuclear disarmament by 2020 - this is the Mayors for Peace 2020 Vision program.  To be sure this program has only an outside chance, but as far as I can tell it is the very best chance we have.

Myself, I urge everyone's support for the 2020 Vision.
