Please keep writing about EROEI. Something I would like to see discussed is, 'What might happen if we get energy from sources that have a absurdly high EROEI?' Dual Fluid, a company proposing a 5th generation nuclear reactor that uses a molten uranium core cooled with molten lead suggests they will achieve an EROEI of 1000.

That might be high. But if we can reprocess spent fuel and use it in breeder reactors there's probably enough Uranium to last for 1,000 years.
