Re: Mobile Chernobyl - what is this?

["ruth_weiner" <ruth_weiner@email.msn.com>]

The anti-nuclear people like to refer to spent nuclear fuel that is being
transported by rail or on trucks, in Type B casks, as"Mobile Chernobyl"
because it is both catchy and scary.  I believe Marvin Resnikoff coined the
phrase. I once actually heard a bureaucrat  say in a public meeting that the
phrase was both misleading and wrong.
