Who is next?

 I am saddened by the multitude of massacres happening all over the country. 

Today,  it is in Uvalde, TX. Tomorrow in ? As a massacre takes place,  we hear prayers from GOP representatives and senators. 

Their ideological and therefore blind commitment to owning firearms with no control is the cause. How many times has the President and democratic leaders reassured them that the 2nd amendment will be preserved and that the goal is to avoid senseless massacres? 

Why would someone need an AK or an AR to hunt or to defend themselves? 

Why would GOP blindness cost the lives of so many? 

Who are the next victims? 

I ask that everyone who visits the blog to flood their senators and reps with demands to revisit the issue. 

The massacres will not stop. We just don't know who is next!

Safety questions arise as Los Alamos National Laboratory pursues pit production.

The comment section is filled the Mello and Coglan going at each other. These guys head the Los Alamos Study Group and the Nuclear Watch Group. I know these guys do not get along but it seems it has amped up the past few years and now they are just going...nuclear on each other!!!! It is like LANL is not really the focus it is all just saying the other side is are liars and dishonest. I am not sure what is going on but I suspect it may have something to do with money and a big donor having to choose. I could just picture Mello " I would rathe the world be destroyed and turned into a nuclear wasteland than let Coghlan win!!!!!.

14 years ago or....

 Over 14+ years later, did honor and real scientific and engineering talent, fall by the wayside to dishonor, greed, and easy profit when LLNS took over LLNL management?

TOKYO China now ranks as the most influential country in four of eight core scientific fields, matching the U.S., according to the Japan Science and Technology Agency.

It is clear the US if falling behind. The question is what doe it mean for the NNSA labs?
