They test the siren the first Saturday every month. The sirens are within 7 miles of the plant. You can also get a free prescription for iodine pills in case of a spill

Before 911 There would be craft shows, etc. at the plant Now! No way! We've never had spills or accidents there and The grounds are beautiful It is on the shores of Lake Michigan!

There is something nuclear in Livermore, CA. Not sure what it is, but I drive by there real quick when in that area. I just read they are trying to shut all nuclear plants in California because of the earthquake faults. Scary thought. I think it's only a very few still operating here.

No but when I was young, a siren let off for bomb raids every second Friday. Loud and a sound I will never forget. Imagine, having little kids ducking under their desk!

We had to crouch under our desks too, every so often during what were called "Air Raid Tests". We were waiting to be bombed. Funny thing is, I don't ever remember being scared...just part of the school curriculum I guess.

No, but isn't it funny that many people who support nuclear energy, would object if there was one "next door"?
