Device that contains radioactive material lost in northwest Reno
Seems one of my contemporaries left their nuke gauge on the back of the truck. Funny how the news makes it sound like a national emergency. If only the public knew how many nuclear devices are being used around them everyday. Or should I say "nucular", per our president.

I CERTAINLY FEEL BETTER AFTER HEARING WHAT THIS EXPERT HAD TO SAY:
"It shouldn't have been left around," Kammen said. "It is a little bit odd for one to be left around. There's not a lot of them sitting around to be left around. It's certainly not a good thing."
"someone could happen upon it and basically sit with their rear end on top of it. They could get a dose that is not good." - - Daniel Kammen, Professor of Nuclear Engineering and Director of the Renewable and Appropriate Energy Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley.
THIS SAME THING HAPPENED IN CASPER WHEN WE LIVED THERE, AND IT WAS IN THE PAPERS FOR DAYS.
I always worry about someone breaking into our house then finding and stealing my Bear Creek Uranium paperweight. They might take it somewhere, break the into the vial of yellowcake, and stick it up their ass.
