Re: I'll make you a deal

Interstellar travel is never considered practical if it takes more than one generation to reach the destination, say 20-40 years. We should treat nuclear waste the same way. I will come over and support nuclear power if:

1. There is a law requiring that all toxic materials, radioactive and otherwise, are neutralized within one generation of being produced. Neutralization cannot include geologic storage, it must mean that the material is less than, or equal to, the background radiation of the environment.

2. With the law in place, and the process in full swing with all costs accounted for, you can show me that nuclear is less expensive than wind energy.

If you can show me that, I will support nuclear power instead of wind. Seriously.
Your ball.
