I have always been a fan of the idea of RTG-driven steam cars. Of course nobody takes the idea seriously, but the military has been very consistent about developing smaller and small nuclear power plants that can be deployed easily with troops, so some day the idea of a consumer-friendly portable nuke plant may be a reality. I support that - fully. And, hey, maybe people will drive more safely if they know that failure to do so might wipe out a small neighborhood. :p No, but seriously - an RTG big enough to power a steam car would be too small to cause any real harm even in the worst conditions. And what's not to love about a car that lasts a decade on a "charge?"
