And what happens, BTW, when "in situ for the time being" goes south on ya?

Answer: it contaminates your water supply, and you is fucked.

Oh, and another thing. When you need a whole god damn ocean to generate energy, and so "site all of our power/weapons materiel reactors on the coast" don't you think you might have a rather inefficient energy generating system?

I mean, think about that for a minute. We need non-polluted ocean water, just like we need non-polluted fresh water to sustain ourselves on this planet. Just what paradigm does a mind live in that thinks of oceans as perpetually pollutable sources of water for energy production and weapons manufacturing?

Idiots think like that, though.
