All that mining in World of Warcraft paid off. Thorium reactors instead of oil?
Development of Tiny Thorium Reactors Could Wean the World Off Oil In Just Five Years

An abundant metal with vast energy potential could quickly wean the world off oil, if only Western political leaders would muster the will to do it, a UK newspaper says today. The Telegraph makes the case for thorium reactors as the key to a fossil-fuel-free world within five years, and puts the ball firmly in President Barack Obama's court.
Thorium, named for the Norse god of thunder, is much more abundant than uranium and has 200 times that metal's energy potential. Thorium is also a more efficient fuel source -- unlike natural uranium, which must be highly refined before it can be used in nuclear reactors, all thorium is potentially usable as fuel.

Imagine if they made saronite reactors.

Then they'd really have something.

I got my bike last week.

I would level engineering if I could make a thorium generator!

And I will even break my personal zero-pvp record if Amerika invades un-goro!

I'd wait to see the required mats for this thing. Plus the cooldown might be like a week or something.

You mean 'gey'? lol..?

And to the other one, you do know that a death penalty bigger than what they have set for BETA only is annoying and doesn't improve the experience one iota? Right?
