    Cool resources that this particular nuclear powered (industry) family is interested to see, Mary.

    Husband and I were listening to NPR last night and heard this story. I must have missed the part that said it was the 30th anniversary as I wondered why they were talking about TMI.

    Pat has worked with TMI and several other nuclear plants and said that accident changed everything. (He’s been a nukie since Navy days 30 some years ago. Our kids all glow. :-) )

    It was like the guy said on NPR that originally opposed nuclear power and supports it now. “The huge wake up call” seems to have had an effect.

    It”ll be interesting to see how it all plays out.

    “Husband and I were listening to NPR last night and heard this story.” This story being the NPR link.
