Regarding spent nuclear fuel rods, I saw an interview where a nuclear scientist said they only have to be stored for 35 years, then they can be something like 95% recycled into new fuel rods. What's left over is far less hazardous than the spent fuel rods themselves. Can anyone confirm on deny this? Another interesting quote was that a lot more people die in coal mines every year than have ever died as a result of nuclear plants. <br /> <br />I'd like to see a standardized reactor vessel designed by a group of knowledgeable engineers and scientists and built under conditions similar to the Navy's Sub Safe program. It would have no 'user servicable parts' inside for the utilities to play with and would be replaced as a unit. That might make nuclear politically easier to site.
