    Uranium enough for hundreds of years and thorium for thousands. At the moment uranium is pretty cheap (hundred of dollars/kg or something) and isn't a big factor in the total energy cost. Nuclear leccie should really be too cheap to meter, but somehow it comes out expensive.

    I don't hold out much faith in fusion being this cheap.
