Oh and by the way somebody please explain to me what we are doing with this nuclear waste because since we have invented nuclear power we have not come up with the solution to what to do with the nuclear waste I am literally downriver from a nuclear power plant I am actually waiting for like a flash flood or something to come wash all of the nuclear waste into the Mississippi.
Nuclear is not a solution.
