		<description>I wasn&#039;t aware that pointing out pro-nuke &#039;safe&#039; arguments usually conveniently forget to mention that we have no effective waste disposal program was lowering the level of debate, Matt. Sure, I did it in a &#039;Dan&#039; way due to the Aaaaaaal Goooooore!!!! taunt, but I guess we learn something every day.</description>

		<description>Way to lower the level of debate, Dan.  Where should we send your share of radioactive and toxic coal biproducts?</description>

		<description>Jon,

If its so safe, you&#039;ll agree, then, to be part of the &#039;neighborhood trial&#039; that seeks to store spent nuke fuel under children&#039;s beds. We can get under the standard trundle bed (not the &quot;Cars&quot; design, but most Disney beds) three 25-gal drums.

How many do we sign you up for?

Let us know and I&#039;ll work on shipment as soon as the Interstate Commerce rules are clarified.</description>

		<description>#3, #7...it&#039;s here, it&#039;s safe, it&#039;s a million times more cost effective.  Has Gore/Soros/Sierra Club piled on the fear so thick that it&#039;s clouding your judgement of nuclear power?</description>

		<description>&quot;isn&#039;t the information age fabulous?&quot;

It would be better if people would post working links.</description>

		<description>Ah Matt, science is pure and perfect, it&#039;s the humans who do not manage things well.  I don&#039;t trust people with that kind of tool.  Sorry.</description>

		<description>NASA has been powering spacecraft for years with tiny nuclear generators. They&#039;re much less efficient and powerful but 100% more real.</description>

		<description>I&#039;d much rather see investments in concentrating solar and wind than nuclear, but if political forces bring us to nuclear then I think there are ways of building nuclear much smarter than before.

Actually, building them far enough to not be a direct threat but no further could be a huge benefit.  Just dump waste heat into supply water and we&#039;d all have pre-heated hot water and even free heat for heat pumps in the winter.  From an engineering perspective nuclear is a beautiful solution.  It&#039;s just the real world that gets in the way (fear, money, prior accidents, politics, value engineering).

I&#039;d actually heard of the micro-nuclear thing a few years ago at the conceptual stage.  But maybe it was just at a lower level of hoax back then.</description>

		<description>&quot;All nukes is bad nukes&quot; is the new &quot;No nukes is good nukes&quot;...

Besides, don&#039;t you people have to clean up Hanford, and make sense out of that ticking, enormo, unattended-to superdoopermess, before you can even BEGIN to even OVERHEAR about how OTHER people now are mis-hallucinating new, carbon-friendly &#039;nucular energy stations&#039; -- especially as some kind of recklessly uncanny &#039;alternative temples&#039; in this &#039;Alt.energy&#039;/Peak Oil/End-Times Paradigm-store &quot;Scarcity Religion&quot; you all are so busy feverishly engineering?

&quot;Timmy, finish the rest of the ultratoxic cake you have on your 20th Century dessert plate; if you want more after that, in four billion years or so, THEN you can have more.&quot;

I would have to vote no on nuclear power stations of any size being constructed at all, even on side streets in &#039;Second Life&#039;, let alone on Capital Hill or in neighboring municipalities; or indeed anywhere else wheresoever wherein organic beings (of any kind) still currently find themselves, kindasorta, still, you know,&#039;living&#039;.

(Just my .02 cents&#039; worth.)

Namaste!</description>
