Report Blames NRC For VT Yankee Leak

mdsolar writes "A new report from a nuclear watchdog group finds that the Nuclear Regulatory Commission 'is ignoring its oversight and enforcement responsibilities at the nation's increasingly leaky, uninspected and unmaintained nuclear power plants.' Because of this lack of oversight, 'at least 102 reactor units are now documented to have had recurring radioactive leaks into groundwater from 1963 through February 2009.' So, the leak at Vermont Yankee that Slashdot has been following is not just a fluke, but is systemic."

    Rob Malda has a tiny peen0r. It's so small that the best electron microscope can't resolve it. That's why his wife is constantly going around bars picking up packs of dudes to fuck.

    You use the term "accident" lightly here?

    Chernobyl was pretty much intentional. The Soviet military invaded the plant for a "scientific test" and held the technicians at gunpoint while they bypassed every security feature that site had. Repeatedly. Until it blew up.

    You mean like Hiroshima and Nagasaki? At least we broke those slant eyed motherfuckers. Now they are as passive as sheep. Too bad we don't have the backbone for such undertakings these days. Might put the sand niggers in their proper place if we wiped a few "holy" cities off the map.
