Sorry about the last non-message. It just sort of sent itself.

Well, yes.  And the experiment continues on Salt Lake City residents.  This red 
hot site, if you read the DOE report carefully, was perfuctorily "remediated" 
and just covered over.  The fact that they built a yellowcake plant in the 
middle of a population center is just amazing. Salt Lake City is a strange 
place culturally and people tend to "just not talk about it".  None of my 
friends and family who still live there have any idea of the existence of the 
place or what it did.

I'm quite enthusiastic about the idea and maybe someday such a thing will 
actually be implemented.
