Grumpy Old Men at Oak Ridge
| Tweet |
On a recent trip to the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, a highly sensitive Energy Department nuclear weapons site, two POGO investigators discovered some gaping holes in Oak Ridge’s security. POGO’s chief, Danielle Brian, wrote Secretary of Energy Samuel Bodman today (pdf) about this vulnerability and the story surrounding POGO’s discovery therein, thereof.
Some Energy officials have claimed that, while on a guided tour of the Oak Ridge National Lab, POGO’s two investigators broke away from their handlers and clandestinely hopped around the Lab stirring up trouble. This is false, as Danielle notes in her detailed letter (pdf). Moreover, the two investigators have a combined age of 134, so they are a wee bit too old for ninja style tactics.
Let’s just say if the Oak Ridge security office can’t handle these grumpy old men, they must not be combat ready.
