This:

"Gates spent a significant portion of his speech highlighting nuclear
technology that would turn spent uranium -- the 99 percent of uranium
rods that aren't burned in current nuclear power plants -- into
electricity."

Is something that I've been saying for at least 30 years. Former
Washington State governor Dixie Lee Ray once said that we should be
storing all our spent nuclear waste where we could get at it easily
because one day we would want it to be able to use the energy
remaining in it. Instead we have adopted a policy of trying to hide it
as far away as possible.

Ah! the foolishness of man!
