I saw a TV program where Americans were trying to make a danger sign that civizations in the future (after the collapse of our own) would understand after nuclear waste was to be buried in an underground salt mine. Did they make one. If so what was it.

I'll look it up and give you the best answer as soon as I return!!!
I found this article on the subject:
http://www.grist.org/news/maindish/2006/08/08/stang/
It would seem that this has been a topic of concern for the Department of Energy for a number of years, but no resolution on the matter has been at the very least publicized.
Quote from article:
"While the Department of Energy has held preliminary discussions about some scattered nuclear waste and uranium tailing sites, there has been no coordination between the sites so far."
The article is dated August 2006 and I found no other information on the topic. I would surmise that no official, future generation conscious, nuclear waste sign has been created.
Excellent question!!!

I don't know if they chose one, but I think that something like the pirate flag, Jolly Roger, should be enough warning for anyone to stay away.
