Hi Andrew,
 
I agree with Nate, nice to have some clarification from people who have  
first hand knowledge.
 
I am not very knowledgeable in that area so I ask you for your  thoughts on 
the following:
 
There was a recent TV program on France's nuclear energy  industry. Nuclear 
energy not only provides for most of their domestic  electricity usage, but 
they also sell electricity to several other European  countries.  Why not follow 
France's example  of reprocessing the spent fuel and storage of the greatly 
reduced  volume on site in their one reprocessing plant.
 
Recognizing the security risk of weapons grade material stored, to date the  
French appear to have that sufficiently controlled in the design and  
protections of their plant. 
 
So finally my question is why do we need to store at Yucca at all?
