When driving through France, one can see a nuclear power plant around
every
curve, it seems. France has not, to my knowledge, had a nuclear incident.
Why do
we not use more nuclear power? Is it politics?

Perhaps they haven't begun thinking about what to do with the waste yet.
Neither have we. Or you. I suspect you don't think about it because you
don't feel the problem will become critical until you're dead. I, on the
other hand, give a damn about the world my son and his children inherit. I'm
funny that way.

Then you better worry about the excess radiation releases and mercury
release (major source for mercury in pelagic fish) from coal use. Much more
nasty than Nuc plants. We can bury the waste, which is not very much cubic
meter wise in the middle of a mountain in the desert, or in an old salt
mine, or in an underground nuclear explosion cavern.

Do you sincerely feel that placing yourself on a pedestal while demeaning others
lends value to your posts, Doug?

When you ask a silly question like "is it politics?", it sort of begs for a
slap in the face. As far back as a year ago, you explained that you
sometimes enjoy baiting the assembled masses here. By now, you may have
refined it to an art form. How do I know you didn't fall off your chair
laughing after you wrote that question?

Why does the question beg a "slap in the face" from you? Are you sure I stated
an enjoyment in 'baiting the masses"? I don't recall that.

There have been several literate responses to my question. Few pedestal
climbers.

You're preparing for a major remodeling project. Your contractor of choice r
eminds you that your normal garbage truck will not haul away the debris, and
that you must make special arrangements. On the day the contractor returns
with his crew to begin work, you have not rented a dumpster. You tell him
"I'll deal with it later, somehow, probably".

Is that about right?

If that has something to do with the previous posts in this thread, then you

Is IS connected with the nuclear power issue, and you don't see the analogy.
Think about it over the weekend, grasshopper.
