Nukular Follies -- Yahooo! Hop on board!!

After seeing an earlier must-must-must-read piece about Hanford's problems (reposted near the bottom), I thought you might enjoy a short tour of PanTex's problems and our own lil' ol' waste dump in Texas.......

But before the nukular rodeo begins, I must mention that on at least two occasions in the 1990's, federal inspectors discovered that Pantex nearly detonated two nukular bombs because they were using the wrong instructions.
