Who cares? Do you think the government would honestly even think about it if they didn't have a perfectly safe plan to carry it out? Looks like notorious liberal whining and overhype to me.

Despite this, and according to the professor, the radiation coming from these trucks is equivelent to (not sure amount) of an X-Ray.

That doesnt make any sense. equivalent to an xray over what period of time? a year probably. a year if your hugging the truck more likely. in that case its insignificant.

furthermore, theres a huge distribution problem there. radiation falls off as 1/r^2. an analogy? one ejaculation has the power to inpregnate 1 million women - huge distribution problem there buddy

HOLY CRAP!!

I guess that explains that second head I have growing out of my neck!! :Q

 

[LordMaul]

Yank, 5 miles. Who igves a crap...maybe I'll get force powers, or three nutsacks!

 

[iamwiz82]

ha, i beat you all(since i dont believe the 0.0 )

Distance from the nearest nuclear waste route: 0.2 miles

I can see the railroad tracks from my living room

The picture

Greeeeaaaattt

 

[SHoddyCOmp]

Oh wait i just noticed that the railroad tracks were the 'route'. Uhm. Cough. ha ha. Those are so crappy i dont think theyre used anymore. I havent seen a train go by in YEARS. They were planning to convert them for light rail transportation though but that never happened. Stupid people

Mesa gonna die??

What's so bad about nuclear waste? I built my house right onto a covered-over storage lot for spent uranium isotopes - the land is very very cheap, taxes are almost non-existant! Great investment opportunity, radioactivity is a way overrated danger. *cough* *COUGH* *COUGH* Oh excuse me. Damn - I just lost a tooth - so anyway, as I was saying *COUGHHACKKKK* - omg, I'm spitting up blood again... maybe I need some more Vitamin C... well so I built this house and everything seems to be pretty safe, in fact my wife and I want to raise children here. For some reason though she can't get pregnant. I wonder if it has to do with the dozen breast cancers she's had and odd growth on her thigh, but certainly is not my fault, my little soldiers are alive and kicking (regardless of what my doctor says). But anyway I just don't see the harm of living on top of a nuclear waste site, but we don't seem to get very good TV reception here, always fuzzy... a lot of the electronics in my house keep dying, must be that Y2K bug...

Distance: Damn far, seeing as how there are no nuclear power plants in Alaska.
