An investigation team has found three times more highly radioactive plutonium in the disused nuclear waste depot in Asse than the inventory states, the German Environment Ministry announced Saturday.

1. Ah but some here says it won't hurt you
I'll repeat what I've said all along, the nuclear power industry will and do lie to us even when the truth might sound better, they lie

2. So when they were told to stick their nuclear waste
in their Asse,
they took it literally.

3. It could be worse.
They could've found 1/3 the amount of plutonium that was supposed to be there.

6. Let me reach over and get my aluminum foil hat ...
:tinfoilhat:

From this one could extrapolate that it is possible to produce 2 times more plutonium than a nuclear site reports. How many instances around the world have nuclear enterprises secretly produced extra plutonium that is unknown to the world inventory.

Not that there would be enough clandestine plutonium to make an atomic bomb, but there could be enough to make a nasty 'dirty' bomb
