Los Alamos speaks...

http://lanl-the-real-story.blogspot.com ... Here is the blog, with mostly anonymous comments, from the folks at "lanl". That is, the Los Alamos Nuclear Laboratory who are doing their level best to get rid of their Director. Following is the header on the blog, and who, finally, is paying attention to their blog:

LANL Director George P. Nanos shut down the entire laboratory in July, 2004, citing "egregious" security and safety violations. The results of the shutdown include a cost to the taxpayer of approximately $850 million, an exodus of highly talented staff members, and the loss of untold millions of dollars of funding from customers who have taken their business elsewhere. This blog provides an uncensored LANL forum. See the link named "Posting Guidelines" below for posting instructions.

At Los Alamos, Blogging Their DiscontentBy WILLIAM J. BROAD
blog rebellion among scientists and engineers at Los Alamos, the federal government's premier nuclear weapons laboratory, is threatening to end the tenure of its director, G. Peter Nanos.

Yep. William J Broad of the NY Times has had his attention caught. This is good. But not half as good as reading the blog itself. The brilliant people who work there have a tendency to not mince their words...nor conceal their feelings. They're very upset.

This is an important facility, to say the least. For the nation's sake, I hope the powers that be are listening to them.
