One other thing I should have noted in the design notes for the aircraft carrier is that I have arbitrairly reduced the fuel consumption of fission plants to the listed value *per year*, rather than *per hour*. If I hadn't, the aircraft carrier would be burning up 4.8 cubic meters of uranium per day, which would weigh something like 50 or 60 metric tons. Clearly, this doesn't reflect reality (if it did, all those people who complain about nuclear waste, would really be up in arms.). This hasn't shown up in official errata yet, has it?
