Any thinking person would want to know where the fuel is coming from, how long it will last, and what to do with the waste. But for the sake of brevity, just tell me about the waste storage world wide, agesilaus. How exactly do we safely store anything for 1000 to 10,000 years? (those numbers are suggested by the World Nuclear Association.
Other than fear mongering and some of the stupidity that results from it, storage is pretty simple. We have deep underground storage systems worked out and can easily handle a few thousand years of nuclear waste safely. They are well clear of any water sources and no risk of blowing up or other major issues.
