Flood Berm Collapses At Nebraska Nuclear Plant

How are your escape routes doing? Is I-29 open all the time?
Nice to see the pro-nuke people out in force, demanding news black outs
The only people seeking to block access to anything are you and your kooky cohorts, trying to convince everyone the great noodley tentacles of Flying Spaghetti Monster of Nuclear Power have come to spread radiation across the land and claim us all.
Meanwhile you bury any attempt at transmission of anything like facts about radiation or safety in your mass of gibbering alarm.
And I'll bet you do that all with bananas sitting right in your house, if only you knew...
