Save the date and time.
Tomorrow, Thursday October 25 at at 11 a.m, Dr. Robert Hargraves will discuss his book Thorium, Energy Cheaper than Coal, on WDEV radio in Vermont. It will be streaming on the Internet.
Hargraves will be on Rob Roper's show, which is co-sponsored by the Ethan Allen Institute. The Ethan Allen Institute is the home of the Energy Education Project: I'm the director of that project.
Thorium, Energy Cheaper than Coal is a very important book. I reviewed it very favorably on this site. I also recommend Hargraves own site about the book, which includes endorsements from winners of the Nobel Prize in physics.
Hargraves will be on the radio for the entire hour, from 11 to 12, and you can listen from your computer by clicking either flash or no-flash at the bottom left on the WDEV website. You can also call in to ask questions: the number is 802.244.1777.
Learn about the Liquid Fluoride Thorium Reactor (LFTR). Ask questions of Hargraves. Try to catch this show!

Engineering Seminar November 9
On November 9, 3:30 p.m., Hargraves will give an engineering seminar at Dartmouth on Thorium, Energy Cheaper than Coal. Obviously, you can't come to the seminar unless you live near Dartmouth. However, Dartmouth will post a video of the talk later in the month. When they do, I will link to it. If you live within striking distance, try to attend this seminar. I'll be there.
In Between: China
From October 29 through November 1, Hargraves will be at the Thorium Energy Conference in Shanghai, giving a talk on Thorium, Energy Cheaper than Coal. Both China and India are ahead of the United States on advanced fuel cycle reactors like the LFTR. But that's another blog post for another day! Meanwhile, if you don't want to travel to China, consider listening to the Rob Roper show tomorrow or stopping by Dartmouth's School of Engineering about two weeks from now.
Looked for an archived version at http://www.wdevradio.com/progs_popup.asp but no luck.
ReplyDeleteAny suggestions?
Meredith - I recommend you copy your YesVY book review to the Amazon page, where it will attract new eyeballs to the website.

ReplyDeleteUnfortunately, WDEV does not keep an archive of its programs. It doesn't even stream most of its programs. I know a mid-day program is pretty close to impossible for most people, but I thought I would announce it also.
Good idea about the Amazon page!
Hi Atomikrabbit.
ReplyDeleteI put a few paragraphs of my blog post review on the THORIUM Amazon page, with a link back to my post for the full review. Amazon is "processing" this, and I hope it will go up within a day or so. Thank you for the suggestion.
The book review is up at Amazon now. I forgot that when I started reviewing at Amazon I gave myself a funny reviewer-name. Oh well. Silicon Valley Joanie. The review is up, at any rate.
