Ah yes, the brilliance once again of the DOE.  Let's put the nuclear waste 
dump right smack dab in the middle of a major earthquake zone.  Sheesh, the 
DOE's own facilities out in that region have been damaged by earthquakes.

And, have they never heard the old saying about putting all your eggs in one 
basket.  By all means, start sending a bunch of trucks all to one area.  Why 
not simple put a bullseye on the thing and say "terrorist apply here."

Of course, those are the same folks that thought it would be brilliant to 
put the power plant in Eureka right smack dab on a fault line AND in a swamp 
that is an old delta that will turn to quicksand/mud if there is another big 
quake up that way.  AND the brilliant soles that have "lost" about half the 
spent rods from up there.
