Who knows, it certainly could have been. There has been plenty of
talk of the US and Russia acting as nuclear fuel suppliers and
reprocessors to the world as a means to keep better control on the
parts of the process that could be used to produce weapons grade
material.

The saddest part is that ways to store nuclear waste safely, are well
known.

This accident might just be the tragedy needed to go the last mile here in
the US.




The wackos wonder about storing the stuff for 10,000 years, like there
will never be any better technology to handle the stuff in 100 years or
even 20 years/.
