Nuclear Hawke, Giant squid seen
Seen on teev: Old Silver Bodgie, Hawkie, was drunkenly spruiking Aus a repository for Nookula waste, muttering some incomplete sentence about the Aborigines wouldnt mind...
Obviously the Nookula industry has slipped Bob a few bob to boost this farcical idea. As Mark Latham said, its a bit late to be worried about what Hawkie says.
Something that slipped under even my piercing radar was the "Inherently Safe Reactor" design using graphite balls. I failed to twig the obvious until it was pointed out recently: Graphite catches fire (Anyone remember Ukranian wormwood?, the explosion that cost Ukraine more than the total value of all electricity produced by all Soviet nuclear reactors?)
