Because of the political prolems connected with creating a mass
storage site for waste fuel, almost all the spent fuel ever
created at American power plants is still being held on site in
thse "swimming pools", adn the sum total of all these poosl is
the total amount of spent fuel created. The fuel itself takes up
less than on-hundredth the volume of the pool, so you an see that
teh total amount of waste, by volume, is pretty low.

I don't doubt that it's safe, but you are the exception on this. Few
people are happy to live anywhere near nuclear waste.

You don't have a lot of choice the stuff is everywhere.

We've got some sitting out by our curb waiting for the garbage
pickup.
