...age of nuclear creativity, with lots of start ups generating a plethora of ideas. These will not pan out.

By way of history, there once was a plot to assassinate Werner Heisenberg at the Paul Scherrer Institute during World War II, to be carried out by a former major league catcher, Moe Berg. The idea was to disrupt a putative German nuclear weapons program that the West assumed was underway; actually one wasn't underway, although some primitive reactor technology was being explored. The assassination didn't come off, obviously. Denmark was peripherally involved, since it was the home of Niels Bohr, who had discussed nuclear issues with Heisenberg in occupied Denmark before escaping (he was half Jewish) to the West.

If nothing else, running the described reactor at 1 MW should generate at least some tritium for the fusion toys. It's a good thing to try out I think. I wouldn't personally invest in it, but I wish them every success.
