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!

Not confirmed. Not that hard to understand. Hey just take sick leave or vacation if you worried.

Sounds kinda weird, do you have some issues with "foreigners".
3/23/2020 11:57 AM
Yes but the public can’t absorb that fact.

Yes. Especially the ones who bring in infectious diseases knowingly.

How about the infectious diseases of stupidly. What have you ever done for the country, what have you done besides live of the work of "foreigners". Last time I checked LANL and even LLN owe their existence to "foreigners" All you LLNL rednecks should realize that not only was Teller a foreigner but he was also a Jew, now consider that the next time you go on about "them foreigners". If not for "them foreigners" you would be speaking Russian, eating sushi, or drinking German beer.
You might take time out of your rant to consider that you have no idea what you are talking about, nor especially to whom you are talking.

It is pretty obvious to whom I am talking to. You have been on this blog for some time now with your anti science, anti LANL rants. You seem to have little knowledge of the history of the labs, what is done at the labs, why it is done at the labs and who did what at the labs. It is rather obvious you have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA about the labs.
LANL and LLNL was founded by foreign scientists, that is fact look it up at some point. You know Teller came from a place "called" Hungary, I know you don't this is a country but it is, again look it up.
3/23/2020 5:36 PM here, Well, you have your posters completely confused. I am a retired LANL scientist (Ph.D. physics), who thinks LANL is and was the most competent and modern multi-program national security laboratory in the country. I am not anti-science and not anti-LANL in the least. And I am probably more knowledgeable about LANL history and the Manhattan project than you are, having spent many years working very closely with the LANL Historian in the LANL Archives building on DP Road. I have read literally thousands of the old mimeographed and onion skin memos from the earliest days at LANL and the other Manhattan Project facilities around the country, many of which were signed by the foreign scientists you mention. Try directing your rants at the anti-science, anti-LANL posters who are actually posting here. It isn't me.

Agreed this entire thing is due to Trump, none of this would have happened under Hillary. Trump had all the information and he did nothing not one thing, the planes kept coming in, the ships kept sailing and he will now order the country open by April 12th and kill untold numbers of people. The country has gone mad. What scares me is not so much Trump because we always have crazy people like him. It is the untold masses that voted him. These people are dangerous and should have never been allowed to vote. These are the uneducated, ignorant, low wage, deplorables that Russia could influence so easily. These people should never be allowed to vote particularly under a system where you so much fake news is allowed on the internet. This has to change.

The stuff Trump is saying is just nuts, he said the virus is a hoax, then he said that fish tank poison cures it, now he is saying that the come hell or high water the US will be open by Easter. It is just crazy, who knows what other nutball things he says are, I refuse REFUSE to watch his press conferences and agree with what many in the news are saying that they should not be televised due to his lies and insanity. I hope California and New York say no to Trumps "open" command. He can blame China all he wants but the reality is he started a trade war with China so of course China would not trust the US and hid the numbers because of Trumps action. I am not saying China is right but when you have crazy nut job like Trump than do not expect good reactions from other countries. Not to mention that he totally gutted the CDC and fired all their pandemic people. We live in crazy crazy times when a bankrupt TV idiot TV personality runs your country. How did it get this state.
Your reasoning capacity has reached empty. The only thing you have to love is fear itself.

The only thing we have to fear is Trump himself. The virus is going to hit the US harder than any county and this is on Trump. One good thing that this crisis shows is that capitalism is uniquely ill equipped to deal with such events and hopefully people realize that in our global world that ideas of the rugged individual is nonsense.
Yes,yes yes.
Trump owns this and Cuomo is having to clean it up.

False, Trump wanted to close the whole place down, no food in or out, no medicine, nothing. Cuomo came in like a boss and laid down the law and told Trump no way. Cuomo is now essentially in charge of our response. He is going to win by a landslide in Nov. Heck it may even be possible they invoke the 25th and remove Trump and put Cuomo in to save the hundred thousands lives.
