Where is the cache of cesium now, and how was it possible for a rabbit to get to it, especially given that all such materials are supposed to carefully monitored and controlled?
How much radioactive material is currently accessible to animals on the Hanford Nuclear Reservation and other nuclear facilities around the country, and how much of it is being carried down the Columbia River through cities such as Portland, Oregon?
Does anyone in your family have cancer?

Are they still discussing sending the countries nuclear waste there? Clean alternative energy is never going to catch on as long as we pretend that nuclear is safe. We still cannot even store the waste safely or agree on a place to store it, or find the political will to even rationally discuss the issue.

I sense your frustration but please, everytime I sign on now I see over two hundred updates, and all it is, is spam and this message about the spam. There has to be a better way. I know they aren't giving the attention to it that it deserves, but again it pushes the story up.... so use reverse psychology. If you have an issue you know gets a lot of spam because they want to silence it, post it and watch the spam make it rise to the top and do your job for you. Then report their asses and vote them down and keep voting them down until it disappears. I think I will also be writing a formal snail mail letter to the Chairman to let him know what's going on here. If anyone on this staff or these spammers thinks they will shut our comments down, they got another thing coming.

This just sucks . I live downwind of there . Can we please have solar and wind power yet ? It is just stupid to toxify the place for energy , when that is no longer needed . I have seen estimates that even Washington state could get 70% of its power from solar alone . If you add wind and hydro , ..... we could be golden .

Exactly. It's an indicator of how stupid we have become that we even consider nuclear power as an alternative energy source. The predatory ingrates who keep trying to foist nuclear power upon us are the moral equivalent of bank robbers and house burglars, armed with cancer.

Isn't cesium one of the alkali metals that react extremely violently when exposed with water and water vapor in the air to the point where it catches fire or even explodes?
I can't get the image of an exploding rabbit out of my head right now...

This Hanford plant is a rats nest of nuclear material buried in the ground and it has already seeped into the ground water. The risk is that that contamination will spread into the Columbia river and contaminate this extremely important water way. It could wipe out the salmon population.
Cancer is an epidemic all around the periphery of this area.

Yes, governments are very adept at killing and silencing... animals, rivers, humans... anything and anyone that exposes their secrets. This is actually a disgrace. People can joke because it was a rabbit, but just how much cancer in this area can be attributed to our race as humans to be inhumane?

It's the libertarian crowd that wants to keep pollution, and nuclear poisoning of our ecosystem the norm. Don't let them do this and support more animal rights and green laws please! Earth will thank us. < 3
