This morning the head of the NRC announced that the agency would no longer be making its findings on nuclear (that's "noo-klee-err" for our boy, GW) power plant "security" public. No web-site postings, no public press-conferences and no FOIA requests granted. It's just too dangerous, she said, for such information to be out there accessible to any Tom, Dick or Muhammad.
Fine, I can deal with that, if by "security" she means the actual physical security. You know, gates, guards, vicious dogs that only respond to German commands, that kind of thing. However, anyone want to bet that "security" will be read very broadly to include much more, like, say, safety records and employee and citizen health issues?
Anyone?
Yeah, I didn't think so.
