Less hazardous so it will only kill people and pollute the environment for a couple of hundred years instead of a thousand. Just admit that you don’t care and move on.

You’re just burying your head in the sand about nuclear energy resting easy that hopefully you’ll be long dead by the time that anyone has to deal with it. You probably don’t care about global warming either. Who cares if future generations are saddled with it?

Mountains can disappear in a million years.

IF this was built on a platform of something that was good or reliable other than a VW Beetle it would be worth it. Hard, hard pass.

And that is everyone’s answer here as well ‘it won’t spill’ and ‘trust us, it won’t happen’ It’s as infuriating as believing that nuclear energy is even remotely safe or in any way. Fukushima never planned for a tsunami as big as the one that hit because ‘Well, it will never happen, why worry about it?’ I wish that…

I’m not trusting any part of it there is no way to make radioactive waste ‘safe’, I certainly don’t trust the idiots in any government agency to actually do their jobs. We can only mitigate the dangers from radioactive waste there is no storage of it or any way to dispose of it that is safe or sure fire. It is always…

There is no way that humans can build something that can last for a million years. There isn’t even a building material that can last a million years. There is no way that humans can plan for natural disasters, changes in geography and climate that can take place in a million years. If that is what you are trusting…

So, you trust the DOE to build transport casks, but not containment sites? That makes no sense.

The team from Baku is working Indy now?

I would assume the containment they are building on site is more robust and designed to last centuries? You still haven’t answered why someone else’s backyard is better than these peoples backyard?

Isn't there a Scion that was just a box as well? And a Kia?

And practical can be dull or exciting.

So, for some reason you trust the mobile containment MORE than the in place containment.

So if the container is that good, and feel perfectly safe moving it why is it a problem yo leave it there? And just because a place is a desert does not mean there is not an aquifer or ground water. Unless it’s the Atacama.

*Pan out, focusing on a snow-globe of King’s Landing.*

I too find Vita Coco distasteful. However I found a solution to it’s clashing with my palette: I don’t buy it. I also salute the pisser, well played.

Quirky? It’s a plastic box? 

Okay, and shipping it cross country there? What about the threat to the literally hundreds of communities it would have to pass through? If you your ‘win’ is ‘just dump it in the desert’ like that is an actual solution you don’t really care.

‘They’d rather see all this junk shipped off to disposal sites in the Southwest, where some low-level waste has already been sent. After all, what if the landfill leaks?’

Shit, don’t let him see Time Bandits!
