He's in the Office of the Principal Scientist if you want to call them up. I have a copy of one of his most recent presentations (Oct 18th). I personally don't believe in hydrogen as an energy currency but to each his own. The person you want to contact at AEC is Dr. Alistair Miller.

Sure, it's possible to reduce hydrogen prices with nukes -- so long as they ignore the long run costs of nuclear waste. But with waste half lives in the range of thousands of years, nothing could be more expensive. No company can guarantee the secure disposal of toxic nuclear waste that will last longer than any human civilisation on the planet ever has.
