was 1/2 kilo of Pun - now 65 ton

["Bradshaw, Keith" <Keith.Bradshaw@nnc.co.uk>]

Dear Radsafers

It was on the UK BBC News the other day that the US and Russia have signed
an accord to *destroy* 65 ton of weapons grade plutonium.  Is it the case
that this will take place in the accelerator facilities that we've discussed
here previously?  This amont of Pu represents a huge energy resource, and I
just hope it is going to be destroyed in such a way that the energy is used
usefully.  What's going to happen to all the fission products?
