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...

Maybe pick someone more credible, just sayin she is kinda dumb and i am being kind.
I suggest you review the compelling reasons for building the Contained Firing Facility at Site 300, including the growing concerns of the California Air Resources Board at the time. The proposal to significantly increase Site 300 open air experiments represents a complete abandonment of the arguments supporting the construction of the Site 300 Contained Firing Facility in the first place, and a trend back to pre-1997 open air operations. The link below suggests the Site 300 CFF was a means to eliminate toxic air emissions and other environmental impacts to nearby population centers like Tracy and other nearby populations.
The Altamont hills are frequented with fires and high winds that transport legacy surface contamination away from Site 300. Air quality, ground water contamination, and surface rain runoff from Site 300 toward nearby Central Valley homes, parks, and pedestrian areas are all reasonable concerns.
After reading and comprehending the link below, perhaps you will speak a little more kindly of others that may know more than you do on the matter, and I'm being kind.

Read it, have to say that I know think even less of people that pretend to know things they don't. Total sham...total. Your move.
The facts speak for themselves, independent of what you may "know think".
