Iran: Nuclear delay due to leak, not computer worm
Source: AP

TEHRAN, Iran – A months-long delay in starting up Iran's first nuclear power plant is the result of a small leak, not a computer worm that was found on the laptops of several plant employees, the country's nuclear chief said Monday.

The leak occurred in a storage pool where the plant's fuel is being held before being fed into the reactor core, and it has been fixed, said Ali Akbar Salehi, who is also Iran's vice president. He did not specify whether it was nuclear fuel or another material that leaked. He first announced the delay on Thursday but without giving a reason.

Oh, I feel SOOOOOOOOOO much better now. I was afraid it was something IMPORTANT! Just a leak - no big deal.

2. Why scare people with rumors you want nuclear armageddon
when you can just convince them you're incompetent on the simplest matters?
