All the wastes ever produced by US reactors would be a pile 15 ft high the size of a football field. All the materials can be safely stored in a number of geologic formations. But political fud is in the way. As to refitting old plants. The same cost consideration goes to many structures. The technology and materials today are better. The process of any retrofit can cause unseen damage and the original materials have a design life. Getting past the endless greens FUD on a retrofit is impossible. I think the 300 years worth of coal can be used in the future to make oil and gas and other hydrocarbons. If the CO2 is going to increase anyway, I see doing all to delay it does no harm. tom watson tosiwmee

Well why would some one buy all that expensive energy in California??? Who bought it??? California Fires Five Energy Advisers - Report dailynews.yahoo.com California Gov. Gray Davis (news - web sites) has fired five energy consultants because they had conflicts of interest between their official duties and their personal finances, the Los Angeles Times reported on Saturday. The five advisers were all involved in purchasing energy for the state from a generator in which they owned stock, the newspaper said. The firings came after a top state Republican official asked federal regulators on Wednesday to probe possible insider trading violations in Davis' energy team. .......... Well it's good see Gov Davis has a good war chest for re-election. LOL tom watson tosiwmee
