Ft. Fukushima, Nebraska

OPPD says that, as of today, they are trying to refill the punctured
aqua dam that they said they didn't need anyway but now they do
because the water really IS going to flood the plant. If you have
ever played with water toys you can imagine how much fun it will be
trying to fill a 2,000 foot-long innertube in 7 feet of running
Missouri river water. Especially since the water has been declared
unsafe by the Governor.

Interesting that there have been ZERO news or pictures from there
since June. It hasn't blown up yet, but it's going to be a
write-off.. And do toy remember the COOPER plant just down the river?
Well, darn if the water may not flood that as well. There is a lot
of talk lately in high places about levees about to break.

In the mean time, the Vermont Yankee plant has been spilling radiation
for forty years and they want a permit to keep spilling it for another
forty. The report of their plant is so pitiful that the NRC won't
even accept the report! So, naturally, we can't see it.

But those are just typical of US nuclear plants. They built them to
last thirty years and didn't bother to repair them - and now they want
them re-licensed for another 20 or 30 or 40 years.

What's up at Fukushima? 7.0 earthquake off the coast of Sendai
yesterday....only about a 5.4 by the time it hit Daiichi - just enough
to set everything off again. Lady Gaga was a pit premature. I'd
suggest putting off that trip to Japan for...oh...10,000 years.

Los Alamos? A lot of buildings were damaged, 400 surrounding homes
were lost, but AMAZINGLY, the fire never got anywhere the 30,000 drums
of high-level radioactive material that were between the fire and the
lab and the homes.

Guess what happens after EVERY wildfire? Torrential rain and flooding.
Yep. Guaranteed. You read it here first.
