Re[2]: University of Georgia To Build Lab Near Chernobyl
As I understand it, it is the politically correct thing to do. By
funding the FSU (former soviet union, not Florida State University),
perhaps (don't count on it) we'll prevent FSU scientists from working
for certain mid-Eastern governments, and perhaps prevent them from
acquiring SNM (uranium and plutonium) useful for making nuclear
weapons.

I sure hope they employ Americans there. And why is the U. of Georgia being
funded to do this (who is paying for this?)? Why isn't it one of the
National Laboratories? Would someone tell me why we are financially
supporting Russian science and letting U.S. scientists, many of whom have
spent the bulk of their careers winning the Cold War for the U. S., be
unemployed, underemployed, or forced into early and inadequately funded
retirement?
Clearly only my own opinion.

Subject: University of Georgia To Build Lab Near Chernobyl
UG To Build Lab Near Chernobyl - (ATHENS) -- The University of
Georgia plans to build a laboratory near the Ukraine's Chernobyl
nuclear reactor. University officials have signed an agreement to
build the lab in order to study the effects of radiation on wildlife and
plants near the disabled reactor. No one has been allowed to live
within 18-miles of the Chernobyl nuclear plant
since a 1986 explosion there.
