hat said, do you want a nuke in your backyard and what do we do with the leftovers (nuke waste)? Just asking. We’ve done a lousy job with nuke waste so far, and well, you happen to know anywhere where the actively want nukes built (in the US)? Not saying let’s not build next generation nuke plants, just want to have answers for the naysayers ready beforehand.

I don't mind nukes in my backyard and nuke rods can be regenerated and used over. The only way to go with electricity are nukes and not only for energy, we need them for desalinization, something a lot of people fail to point out. We don't need to be short of water, what we need are nukes. Anyone who fights against them is either misinformed or has an agenda that includes NO energy.

Also, please point out the "poor" job we have done on Nuclear waste and how many people have been killed by it. The greens refuse to let us use the underground facilities we have available, put the blame where it belongs. Besides, as I have already pointed out nuke rods are reusable.

Actually the poor job of storage has been demonstrated, even if no one has been killed. We can’t even get Yucca Mountain done. And if the problem is political then solve that first. Plan ahead.
