Letter: Wide range of opinion on dump

I enjoyed reading the Sun's article on the public feedback that was received concerning the Yucca Mountain repository. You quoted a retired nuclear engineer as being for the repository, yet cited a high school senior as against it. Although the opinion of a senior in high school is valid, it seems that there are far more experienced people who can give a more intelligent response to Yucca Mountain's current status.
