Re: US licenses first nuclear reactors since 1978
Hallelujah and Amen!
It's good to see nuclear power return. If we handle it with caution and care unlike the irresponsibles of the past, then we can benefit greatly.
On the matter of nuclear waste disposal, recently a way to not only dispose of it but to recycle it as fuel has also been discovered. A similar molecule for Cesium has also been discovered, but I am unsure of it's potential. Goodbye, Yucca Mountain!
Like you, I am tired of the overzealous fear of the "glowing green goop". Mass media has exaggerated many aspects of nuclear power; and truth be told, while nuclear power is dangerous,, the people who handle it are very much aware of these dangers and usually do their best to keep the worst from happening.
