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!

A topic on this blog need not always be about LLNL science. If a topic like retiree COLAs, benefits, local cost of living, and yes, LLNL employee and LLNL retiree home property values are all germane topics as well. One’s net worth which includes their home value , can have a material impact to one’s retirement decisions.
Your Kevin Bacon comment is funny! Enjoy your day.

Azul points out, some insurance companies that back or insure insurance companies that we pay home insurance premiums to, are withdrawing from the market.
