I don't have a problem with nuclear power. The danger is so huge
   that the regulations are very very strict and accidents are
   rare. No one will forget they're running a nuclear reactor.
   Can't forget Chernobyl. Ultimate solution? No. But is viable and
   current. Waste is compact and potentially removable from the
   planet. Now, I don't know if it's comparable, but I remember
   reading about an Italian nuclear testing facility from the
   1950s. What did they do when they were done with it? They put
   dirt over it, planted trees and made it a public park. It
   worked. Not to say it's comparable because it's probably not and
   I haven't done my research. I just found it interesting. == I
   was raised in NJ - Roselle Park smile emoticon I worked for
   JCP&L for a year or so as a temp and my job was putting
   engineering drawings into Autocad... even though I didn't know
   autocad. Way underpaid. Anyway, that was like '94. But one of
   the plans I got to put into autocad was a nuclear power plant in
   Forked River, NJ that I guess they never built. It was _very
   cool_ seeing the faded white on crumbling blue paper and not
   really understanding what I was looking at. Spent most of my
   time goofing off though.
