Nuclear waste will leach into the environment for the next quarter million years. As for "The Health Hazards of Not Going Nuclear", I haven't read it. But I'll bet nuclear is put against large coal and oil plants instead of the real winners, decentralized solar, biogas, and natural gas. Read "Soft Energy Paths" and other works by Amory Lovins for further info. -- ....tektronix!uw-beaver!teltone!mark
