    I bet every country including Australia has a few crackheads guarding/controlling nukes.

    Having them getting high worries me only a percentage of what I'd be if they were getting drunk. Definitely will never move to a ground zero area in case of meltdown, though.

        Cheyenne Mt is near Vegas. I'm dead East of Carson City.

        There was Nuclear Testing in places around the state, though. There was a real problem out in Fallon not long ago with radioactive water - over generations it poisoned a lot of people and they just got around to doing something about it in recent years. The closest I got to that was 30 miles and the water out here in the Springs is probably some of the best in the state. (I'm fussy about researching water before I move somewhere).

        No telling what's going on in Area 51, but it's far enough away to not be too concerning, either.
