Yeah, so that was a good one, too.

I love that one.

That's different than this.

Yeah, and our webmaster, Brandon Reed, has put together a world-class search engine on our site, stuffyoushouldknow.com.

So if you type in any keyword of something you're looking for, it's probably going to bring up that episode, maybe some other episodes that we cover that in.

And then you can listen to it right there on the site, too.

So, yeah, we do have a very deep back catalog.

It's almost geologic in its stretch.

At least 10, 15 million, I would say.

Yeah.

And strangely, I did not realize this, but most of the contaminated stuff is low-level waste, like hazard suits and stuff like that.

And even the concrete that the whole power plant is made from, I saw that only about 1% of it is radioactive.

The rest can just be treated as construction waste, essentially.

I saw a proposal saying like, don't do that.

Like reuse this stuff as the concrete, like recycle it as the concrete that seals in the dry casks and stuff like that.

So there's actually, there seems to be much more of a push to recycle all this stuff as we'll see.

But there's a whole process to decommissioning.

And one of the parts of this process is making sure all those fuel assemblies, spent or otherwise, end up in the cooling pool

And then when it's their time to dry casks.

So what's interesting is a whole power plant will be taken offline, decommissioned.
