I think that there is substantial faulty reasoning in this person's claims
(he began with statement that DU is a war crime on YouTube) can anyone help
me better understand his claims and show me where he is wrong.  I have read,
but have a hard time retrieving DOE study on a few DUF6 flasks -

Thanks.

on Depleted Uranium is a
crime!!<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L_RqK_tpkBU&feature=email>:

 100,000 tons of recycled uranium was processed at Paducah.

Lets look at "those" tails as an inhalation dose percent.
U-238 83.45% Th-234 0.08% U-236 0.53% U-235 1.14% U-234 14.61% Pu-239 0.13%
Np-237 0.06%

perhaps only a few atoms of Pa-234, Th-231, Pa-233... interesting how
"those" can work.
