Political Factoid

The nuclear power industry continually tries
to renew licenses for nuclear reactors
past their design life.
 
The number of deteriorating underground pipes
and containment building cracks is proportional
to lobbying efforts and other greasing-of-the-skids
with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(or vice versa).
