Nuclear Facility Secrecy About Near "Uncontrollable Nuclear Reaction" In Tennessee

It's a wonderful thing not that our government is SO concerned about security- they almost blew us all us last year.

From the AP article regarding the event that could have led to one last bright light:
"Some 35 liters, or just over 9 gallons, of highly enriched uranium solution leaked from a transfer line into a protected glovebox and spilled onto the floor. The leak was discovered when a supervisor saw a yellow liquid "running into a hallway" from under a door, according to one document.

The commission said there were two areas, the glovebox and an old elevator shaft, where the solution potentially could have collected in such a way to cause an uncontrolled nuclear reaction."

Great news- ain't it???
