SC?

Bally Bally's just east of Perth, mate.

Once, not long after the incident at the Three Mile Island nuclear 
plant, my wife and I took a wrong turn near Harrisburg, PA. We came over 
a little hill and there were the cooling towers we'd seen so many times 
on television. I felt a bit like Charlton Heston approaching the Statue 
of Liberty on that beach in Planet of the Apes. Whoa, Nelly! Get me out 
of here.

It doesn't seem that any real damage was done in that incident, but I 
don't know how bad things might have gotten. At least all of the backup 
safety systems had not been turned off like they were a Chernobyl. Now, 
THEY have problems.

;-(
