<<YOU'RE THE ONE who stated that the waste might one day be valuable! It's only breader reactors which would make it so, you idiot! It's of NO USE in the current generation of reactors: they've already 'burned' it to the limits of their ability to extract energy. (That's why they call it 'waste'.)>> Breeder reactors became taboo under Carter. Still are. This waste still has 80% of the energy left. A newer reactor design called a fast reactor will get another 90% of the energy out and get the waste down to harmless in one 2,000 th of the time.
