Interesting story from LA Times about the alleged Georgian middleman involved in offering a few ounces of highly enriched U to agents for security agencies in a sting operation.

NPR ran a sensationalistic story yesterday afternoon about this incident --never stating that the amount in this former sausage broker's possession was far below the amount of 5 pounds to 20 pounds of enriched U that would be necessary for some group of terrorists to fabricate a nuclear weapon.
