It's hard to believe but a Reno Gazette-Journal poll has found that nearly 60 percent of Nevada voters say the Yucca Mountain issue will be important when they decide whom to vote for in the presidential election. What if other issues were offered up, too? I bet it wouldn't finish in the top five or even 10. More interesting was the one comment appended to the online version of the Gazette-Journal poll story from a reader who supported the project in part because if "something went wrong the very worst it could do is wipe out Vegas. Which would be a blessing for the state of Nevada." And Nevada would really miss Reno so much if it disappeared. Come to think of it, why not just put the dump in Sparks? Show of hands, please.
