Mary Olson on nuclear reactors in hot water and what it really means; How To Be a Homebound Activist (hint: Yes You CAN); Hanford leaking; NRC just might decide to maybe study health risks for those who live near nuclear reactors; SCE letting 730 San Onofre workers go "beause Unit 3 is unlikely to produce power any time soon" (Let's retrain them to work in solar!); Kucinich demands NRC investigate its own handling of Davis Besse restart; mutated worms and eggplant in Japan; radioactive fish 258 times higher than Japanese government deems safe found 12.5 miles off Fukushima; and Pennsylvania gives free potassium iodide tablets to anyone living near Limerick NPP - the question being: WHY???
