An anoynymous reader contacted CBS's 60 minutes to bring their attention to the Lab.
Imagine the results we get if every one did that?

CBS News is no friend of the nuclear weapon labs. If 60 Minutes ran a story on the NNSA's LLC efforts, it would be used by them to revisit all the wrongs (both real and imagined) that have happened over the last 20 years at LLNL and LANL in an attempt to tarnish the labs and get them shut down.

Current management is doing it's part to tarnish and shut down the lab, not sure CBS could do much more. At least the mismanagement issue at the government and local level will be exposed, which would be of benefit to taxpayers.

I agree with 11:45. LLNL is already severly tarnished by the transition to inferior managment and the deeply lowered morale of what's left of the workforce that hasn't yet or won't soon be "restructured" out the gate. I would love to see the results of an investigative reporter's work in revealing or at least documenting the sucession of LLNS miscalculations and incompetencies (whichever applies) that led us to the current outrageous budget shortfall. Smells like corruption to me.

What do you guys want? One minute you complain about 500+ job lost and then a minute later you seem to want 6000+ job lost by shutting down the lab!? Is this a good idea for GM to waste time on media PR rather than solving the budget shortfall problem?

It doesn't matter what they do at this point. They are a complete failure.

Plutonium Shots on NIF.

By scooby
Tri-Valley Cares needs to be on this if they aren't already. We need to make sure that NNSA and LLNL does not make good on promises to pursue such stupid ideas as doing Plutonium experiments on NIF. The stupidity arises from the fact that a huge population is placed at risk in the short and long term. Why do this kind of experiment in a heavily populated area? Only a moron would push that kind of imbecile area. Do it somewhere else in the god forsaken hills of Los Alamos. Why should the communities in the Bay Area be subjected to such increased risk just because the lab's NIF has failed twice and is trying the Hail Mary pass of doing an SNM experiment just to justify their existence? Those Laser EoS techniques and the people analyzing the raw data are all just BAD anyways. You know what comes next after they do the experiment. They'll figure out that they need larger samples. More risk for the local population. Stop this imbecilic pursuit. They wan...

Trump is to gut the labs.

By scooby
The budget has a 20% decrease to DOE office of science, 20% cut to NIH. NASA also gets a cut. This will  have a huge negative effect on the lab. Crazy, juts crazy. He also wants to cut NEA and PBS, this may not seem like  a big deal but they get very little money and do great things.

LLNL un-diversity

By scooby
Actual post from Dec. 15 from one of the streams. This is a real topic. As far as promoting women and minorities even if their qualifications are not as good as the white male scientists, I am all for it. We need diversity at the lab and if that is what it takes, so be it.  Quit your whining. Look around the lab, what do you see? White male geezers. How many African Americans do you see at the lab? Virtually none. LLNL is one of the MOST undiverse places you will see. Face it folks, LLNL is an institution of white male privilege and they don't want to give up their privileged positions. California, a state of majority Hispanics has the "crown jewel" LLNL nestled in the middle of it with very FEW Hispanics at all!
