In reply to: Andrew(Canada) 's message, "nuclear power" on 23:41:20 01/20/05 Thu

Moreover, my physics teacher once explained the principal of disposal thus: take the nuclear waste, throw it into a very deep part of the sea; it will soon be covered with silt through which radiation can not penetrate, and the fish down there all glow in the dark anyway...

haha, that last part is amusing. But that sounds pretty logical. We here in America have a few power plants. Alot of people say there a large terrorist risk, but that shouldn't stop us from using them. Our disposal method is sticking the radio active material in to the side of a mountain. Well a few miles down inside it. It will be curious to see if it soaks back to the surface.
