I noticed the irony with your two recent postings.  It is amazing how two

contradictory philosophies can exist simlutaniously.   Which do you think

will win?

Well Ruth, your statement reminds me of the Nobel Prize winning

physicist R.P. Feynman who wrote at the end of his famous  'Minority

Report to the Space Shuttle Challenger Inquiry':

          For a successful technology, reality must take

          precedence over public relations, for nature

          cannot be fooled.

WONDERFUL!

I love your blocking position!  That means we are now not going to waste

that valuable

raw material called "spent fuel rods" and put it in a relatively

unretrievable Yucca

Mountain Repository.  Rather, we are going to  keep it in whatever storage

we use at

present and maybe some intermediate (air cooled?) storage until such future

time as we,

like the present-day Californians, come to our senses and reprocess it!



Senator Daschle, you made my week!
