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...

If you have any data supporting that, provide it. I don't believe it for a second, unless lab employees and retirees have somehow all become illiterate, psychotic, and just plain dumb.
You a blog commenter yourself being a clear exception to your negative evaluation of all others of course. Thanks for the educational moment. Be nice.

Ouch.
1. The US taxpayers fund the research and China gets it for free.
2. In order to keep manufacturing costs to an absolute minimum, we ship the manufacturing to China.
If you want control over your own destiny, keep it in your own hands.

In case you have not been to University STEM department or a DOE lab let me fill you in, all STEM scientist, podocs and graduate students are already from China. So if they do they work they should get the tech.
Most solar panels and wind turbine blades are already made in China, with huge carbon footprints.
