#1 Quite sensible.
As a major Uranium ore supplier, moving up the value chain to provide enriched fuel or even fuel rods is the way to go.

Reprocessing and waste storage is the next step. Australia has the space and geology for it.

Not to mention the political credentials to be trusted with this technology

#3 Australia, with its enormous Uranium and Thorium reserves, will be a critical part of the nuclear power industry.
They will ignore the pipsqueak El Baradei.

#4 Omigodomigodomigod! A western country is even considering the prospect of nuclear enrichment!

How can this be?

What will the civilized, peaceloving Islamic nations and North Korea have to say about this? What? What?

Oh, the humanity! Oh, the environment! Oh, what warmongers those Aussies must be to even be considering such a vile and evile thing!

Oh, woe, oh, woe, oh, woe be upon us...the end is nye!

#6 Mine actually dropped below zero, Sea.

Even if (god forbid) the Aussie leftist party were somehow to get back into power.

Oblivious moonbats of the world, take note.

#7 John, my point was that El-Baradei only acts when non-muslims get nuke materials :-)

#8 He tried that BS with the Brazilians.

They put up a screen around their enrichment centrifuges and said "your inspectors may not look behind that screen".
