nuke plants have that little problem with waste hazardous for a

the used fuel pools are in unhardened steel buildings, a airliner, or

i am all for nuke power once they solve the waste problem.


We've been thru this before -- the waste problem is solved if the
obstructionists such as you would simply allow it. Recycle--the fuel
portion (including the fissile transuranics) goes back in the reactor
and the waste is physically reduced drastically in size and dealt with.

Much of the rest of the world has been doing so for 40 years or so now.
