You responses are an angery combination of ignorance through blinders and hyberbole.

No anger on my part. Ignorance? Hyperbole? I thought my presentation was lucid and factual. You presented and still present no refutation of it.

1 I never said nuclear waste was worse than other wastes. I said no one want it, so plenty of it is sitting in storage now. Building a reactor that could "burn" fuel rods on the other hand is extremly unpopular- reminds people of Chernobyl.

Chernobyl was a graphite reactor where the operator removed all the safety restraints and then brought the reactor online, and the graphite caught on fire. It has nothing to do with the discussion we are having.

2 Bombs? Who f--- said anything about bombs? Right now many of our nuclear plants have rods stored above ground level in unsaticfactoraly hardened buildings. These are good targets for terrorists. Imagine the panic if one was hit by a plane. 

Are you really worried about that? I mean running into the reactor might cause some havoc if they were able to crack the containment dome (designed to stop an airplane). But, the spent fuel rods are kept in containment vessels inside fortified concrete cooling tank, usually well below ground level. It is not a good target for a terrorist flying an airplane. Btw, how likely do you think it is that if a terrorist is ever able to take over another plane over the US, that they would stay in the air for another 10 minutes before being shot down?

I am completely correct.

So you say.

Twit.

Did I get personal? Did I attack you? No. And, I won't. If you have nothing further intelligent to discuss on the topic, then, I've little time to spend on what you might think of me personally. I could really care less.
