Am I getting this straight? It is safer to store used spent nuclear fuel on the desert-floor site 50 miles upwind of a major city than it is to put it in a prepared underground mountain facility 100 miles from Sin City.

Maybe we could allow this if members of the Goshute Indian tribe are prepared to live on the site and the families of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission all move to Salt Lake City.
