I want us to spend our resources on this kind of thing instead of the EVIL that was just passed in the ugly budget and continues to roll out in executive orders.

See what happens when we actually use our brains and a little creativity. Maga fears creativity, because they believe it makes them look dumb. It does!

In college my team designed such a facility for a large American utility in 1980 but I don’t believe it was ever built.
