Two wrongs don't make a right Kearn, I don't trust anything, especially if it's made or designed in the US. Radioactive waste isn't something that breaks down in years or even centuries, to leave such hazardous compounds for future generations is IMO irresponsible. Alternatives such as Wind, Wave and Solar are the answer, together with energy conservation.
