      They’re talking about recycling the fuel and putting it back into the reactors. Unfortunately it’s cheaper to mine fresh fuel than to reprocess used fuel … as long as you just ignore the waste problem.

        Well, any waste problem is a hell of a lot better than what we’re doing to the atmosphere.

        Coal should be illegal now.
