>>11782180Who fucking cares what happens in 100k years. I'm serious. Civilized humanity has only been around for a few thousand years, and the progress made has been insane. Kick the can just a couple hundred years and those spent rods will be valuable for something. They'll never sit there for even close to a thousand years.
I forsee us eventually actually using one of those stupid ass underground storages with warning signs and symbols everywhere that a team of 20 took years to perfect. They'll bury a few hundred tons of high grade waste, and pat each other on the back in front of cameras, proudly declaring the world safe from the scary radiation for 100,000 years. Then in 100 years some supercorp will be buying up all the above ground casketed waste for use in something or other, while we all lament ever storing the underground shit in such a difficult to access manner.
