Gov. Rick Perry encourages support of high-level radioactive waste storage in Texas

Gov. Rick Perry has thrown his support behind an effort to make Texas the repository for highly radioactive waste from around the nation.

In a March 28 letter to Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst and Speaker Joe Straus, he unveiled a state environmental agency report — ordered by Perry — that finds Texas is a suitable spot for the waste, typically associated with spent fuel rods at nuclear power plants.

Being the 'Godly' man he is, I'm sure it would be easy to convince him that his God will prevent the rods from giving him oral cancer.

If only we could pawn him off somewhere once the rods are fitted into him. There are plenty of people I could think of sending him to visit. For example, he could be appointed to be a special 'ass'-bassador to Putin or the little North Korean Guy.










(I hope people realize that I wouldn't actually put the rods up there - at least not myself. I believe in science and math and know that they wouldn't fit without some non-science help. Good thing I'm a Norse Pagan and may know how to contact some non-scientific other-kin that would be happy to help with such a project. Yes, I know, a science believing Pagan may seem to be a contradiction, but this universe is vast and there is plenty of room, even for a Pagan Hydrogeologist like me.)
