Mounder:
I've visited, but never worked at this DOE site and I'm not aware of too many success stories with projects in the last 30 years at SRS.  If you want a project to fail, set it up at SRS and their mismanagement and waste will doom it in short-order.  The MOX project, if successful could be very beneficial.  It's too bad.

Rerun:
Not beneficial at all. MOX will never be used in this country

Mounder:
last US pseudo-bastion of fuel recycling we'll see in our lifetimes.  agreed

Rerun:
No do you know how much it would cost one reactor to implement MOX?
