Why am I not surprised to discover that so few of you failed to note this heavenly apparition - including Singlebarbed, himself ? Either this brings good tidings to the nuclear power industry, or suggests that Sacramento may be spared unimagined mutant horrors ! Either way, it might behoove a few of you Nimrods to go to church more often !

If it's one thing those 50s-and-60s era documentaries taught us (attack of the killer ants, etc), it's that radiation often causes things to mutate and grow bigger, and - you fool - you may have just given birth to The Zebra Mussel That Ate Sacramento. Mind you, I'm looking for the downside here, but there's always a chance such a creature might find its way north. Think, dammit. And remember the lessons of history (like Godzilla).

Be that as it may, it's clear you will be sleeping alone for sometime to come. Oh look honey; it glows!
