This seems a lot better than Uranium.
The reason Uranium was commonly chosen, was due to the possibility to make nuclear bombs.

I only wonder about the nuclear waste, but it seems that Thorium gives a different nuclear waste.
Does anyone know more about what waste is produced and how long it will be radioactive/poisonous?
