As an aside, do you know what France does with their nuclear waste?

Likewise France is pointed out, they get all of their electricity from
nuclear, right? No, it's about 77%. Their per capita electric use is about
half of ours. But more significantly is the fact that France's nuclear program
came about in the 50's because of large amounts of domestic uranium to be
had. That uranium peaked in the 70's and now France imports nearly all the
uranium it uses for electric power generation. If everyone in the world
generated 77% of their electricity from nuclear power, the world's reserves of
unanium would be depleted in a few decades and would become prohibitively
expensive long before that.
