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!

Law firm was collecting data to see if their is a case. Next step is for them to discuss with others and if they decide to take case, they will convene again with only those who requested using their services in a suite.
If you read the papers this morning this is the same firm that just lost the case in the Supreme Court that they filed against the Lab. I'm going for a second opinion.
