For myself I did a history brush up since I live on east coast I am not as familiar with. Results of war just don't stop they keep echoing and the echoes get louder with each material war in the physical zone.

Tell me again how safe nuclear plants are!
Partial quote: "May 9, 2017 | 1:06pm | Updated
....“This is a serious situation, and ensuring the safety of the workers and the community is the top priority,” he said in a statement. “We will continue to monitor this situation and assist the federal government in its response.”
Hanford stores about 56 million gallons of nuclear waste, most in 177 underground tanks – some dating back to World War II and leaking — until it can be treated for permanent disposal, KING reported.
Ground was broken at Hanford in 2002 for a $17 billion vitrification plant to separate much of the waste into high- and low-level radioactive material.
“Vitrification is accomplished by mixing waste from Hanford’s underground tanks with glass-forming materials in high-temperature melters,” the Vit Plant says on its website.
“As the materials are heated to 2,100 degrees Fahrenheit, the waste is incorporated into the molten glass. This ‘liquid glass’ is poured into stainless steel canisters to cool,” according to the site. “Once cooled, the now-solid vitrified waste within the canisters can be disposed of permanently and safely.”
After the highly radioactive waste is placed in glass logs, it would be shipped to a national repository proposed for Yucca Mountain in Nevada.
Plutonium production ended at the site in 1980 and the cleanup program began in 1989.
The mostly decommissioned site made the plutonium for most of the US nuclear arsenal, including the bomb dropped on Nagasaki."

reported that the clean up is going to take until 2060 (!) and over all those years, cost, in total $100 billion!!! That is just one nuclear site....just take a look at the map at how many others are in the USA alone!
Have quite a few neighbors who moved to Richland - don't care how affordable the housing is or sunny the weather, you are not going to get me to live within 20 miles of a nuclear plant - active or not.

Most americans haven't even heard about this accident as Trump's actions today are dominating all media outlets right now.
Wth? This accident is serious and threatening to American lives, and not one word from the white house or media other than a small crawler under "TRUMP FIRES COMEY" headlines.
