Are you serious?

You are trying to compare radioactive waste that lasts for 10,000 years to high mercury levels in a lake in Montana?

I will use the world nuclear association as it is conservative and accepted....there are lots more sites that tell a worse story. How many people died from mercury in Montana? How about entire towns abandoned? Hundreds of sq. miles uninhabited?

world-nuclear.org

Read this for a rather chilling account of what went wrong:

Can't happen in the Western world? 3-Mile Island preceded Chernobyl by years....we were very lucky at TMI.

Until the Nuclear industry comes up with a good plan for getting rid of this waste I will take the mercury anyday. Only think I know to do with it is to ship it to the sun, the biggest nuclear reactor we know of.....
