Apparently, Greenpeace's best argument against shipping waste is in some tunnels (they didn't say how many) fires can exceed the tested temperature.
So for there to be a leak, there must be crash, within a tunnel to create such a fire, which cannot be circumvented, no way to put it out, there must be enough fuel to burn the fire long enough to melt the container and must be close enough to the waste to affect it and enough heat to vaporize the waste.
boom! la vie est belle

very cool, someday people will realize that nuclear power is the way to go. 400 modern day reactors, and the USA would be energy independent!

Yeah, good that Finland goverment already understands that fact.
EPR in Olkiluoto will be completed 2009.

cool, does that energy independance include all the oil you use (and import) to power your cars?
