Would that your world of ceramic bubbles without risk for 10,000 years was as miniscule. (In other words, i don't want to hear about Sweden's unbelievably safe storage methods, unless you're willing to write a book about the entire supply chain)
Just because Burrough's insects masquerading as citizens clamor for something doesn't corelate to value. "Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one's courage." - Anaïs Nin
Personally I'd much rather live next to the spent fuel storage than a wind farm (which is exactly what's going to happen as they're building that site in my backyard but won't build any windfarms) but I understand perfectly well if other people feel the opposite way. The important thing is listening to the locals so no community have unwanted things imposed upon them. Peak oil is not an energy crisis. It is a liquid fuel crisis.
And, I suppose that you will try to tell us that 100% of the copper in the windings will be recycled. Ha! 100%???? As if anything is ever 100%.
While you have us swimming in solvents and copper dust, I'll have you know that nuclear materials are natural products, some even on the periodic table fer chissake. Radiation is everywhere. The sun's energy is radiation. You don't want to put that down in some tunnel for 10 billion years, do you? Never underestimate their intelligence, always underestimate their knowledge.
