This should make for some interesting reading over the summer, as the contract re-compete gets into full swing.

My general opinion of Chuck was that he was extremely arrogant, egotistical, and expected all his findings (while he worked in Audits/Assessments) to be addressed immediately regardless of the risk. Also, its ironic he can't speak to the amount of his monetary settlement with LANL. He loses all credibility until he comes forward (i.e. public) on this. Does he have now have something to hide?

The anti-nukes in Santa Fe will salivate over this book. To anyone who actually knows anything this is a very blatant attempt to suck money out of people who don't know anything, using innuendo and half-truths. Very blatant.

Chuck is an egomaniac. His 15 minutes of fame were up years ago.

Chuck lost much of the community's' support many years ago when he got the DOE all riled up with his claims that the "Topper Man" mural in the Los Alamos gym was showing a secret "white power" hand signal. DOE forced the mural to immediately be repainted based on Chuck's bogus complaints of racism.

There is a lot wrong with LANL. Unfortunately, Chuck Montoya was one of them. He has a rather pathetic history of crying wolf far too many times.

The book will make good fire-starter when winter returns.

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!
