U.S. Secretary of Energy Spencer Abraham recommends that Yucca Mountain, a dormant volcano, become the site for the US's nuclear waste.

That is crap about Nevada not being patriotic. No other state is jumping at the chance to have nuclear waste dumped on top of them. Even though I live no where near Las Vegas it still makes a difference what dangerous things the government wants to do to my state.
