A federal appeals court has rejected Nevada’s plea to block the federal government’s plans to turn Yucca Mountain into a nuclear waste dump. I’m ambivalent about this. Of course I don’t want a metric fuckload of the most dangerous shit in the universe within pissing distance of my favorite bars, but where the hell else would they stow this shit? The NIMBY syndrome is bullshit. If not in our backyard, then where? Shoot it off into the sun? Of course I’m always in favor of sending it to Utah. Nothing worth saving there.
