Do NOT Eat The Salmon from the Columbia River... They are Radioactive! Atomic Waste Disposal Site Hanford. Near Richland, Washington. Between Yakima and Walla Walla on the Columbia River.

https://virtualglobetrotting.com/map/hanford-nuclear-site/view/google/
Hanford is one of five major Department of Energy nuclear processing plants and R&D laboratories in the United States. It has more than ten industrialized areas (most with reactors of some kind) located on a 562 square mile site on the Columbia River in eastern Washington. Originally built in secret to produce plutonium for the Manhattan Project, the installation manufactured nuclear materials used in bombs for decades after the war, and it has become one of the most contaminated sites in the USA.

The nuclear weapons production that began at Hanford in the 1940s generated substantial amounts of radioactive and chemical wastes, contaminated land and groundwater, and created a lasting legacy of contaminated facilities. Since the signing of the Tri-Party Agreement in 1989, Ecology, EPA, and Energy have worked to clean up, treat, and dispose of this legacy to reduce the threats it poses. Substantial progress has been made, and substantial work remains.

During World War II, the government wanted a large buffer zone around its nuclear production facilities for secrecy and public safety. The current site is about 580 square miles and most areas are still not accessible to the public.

  • In the 1980s, groundwater contamination totaled about 80 square miles. Today, about 60 square miles of groundwater remains contaminated above federal standards — and the level of contamination has been greatly reduced for significant portions of that area.
  • There are no active nuclear production facilities; however, the site contains some of the nation's most complicated nuclear and mixed dangerous waste, which must be cleaned up.
The U.S. Department of Energy is required to maintain security and prevent unauthorized access to contaminated areas of the site. In the event of an emergency, Energy is required to effectively respond to protect human health and the environment.

Darryl Cherney Said: 
It's not the overwhelming toxics in our environment--it's the shot in the arm; it's not climate change caused by unfathomable volumes of chemicals tossed into the atmosphere--it's chemtrails; it's not selective news reporting by a press beholden to its advertisers--it's fake news; it's not horrid foreign policies in 3rd world countries supporting dictators and cartels--it's immigration; it's not a history of systemic racism and legacy of slavery and genocide--it's that darker skinned people are inferior; it's not the money made by the arms dealers, religions, and resource extractors--it's just that there always will be wars; it's not that the candidates are pre-selected and the system discourages good people from running--it's that the voting machines are rigged; it's not that the Democrats are the other arm of the capitalist party beholden to the banks--it's that they are socialists.  Each distraction has a "something" that proposes an answer that the believer can latch on to, and those "somethings" run cover for the colossal facts that run rogue over our planet and its lifeforms.  These distractions are deliberately inserted into the discourse to distract us from the root problems and most importantly, to divide us. Snap out of it!

American History: The Humboldt County Timber Wars... A Hostile Takeover of Pacific Lumber Company and The Extreme Logging of Old Growth Redwoods in Northern California. MAXXAM SUXX
In 1985 Charles Hurwitz borrowed money (Junk Bonds) from Michael Milken and bought the company Pacific Lumber, located near Eureka, California. Then Hurwitz increased the rate of logging in the Redwood Forest and cut down all the highly profitable trees. Then he split his corporation MAXXAM into two divisions. One division was used to do actual logging and sawing of boards and the other division was used to hide the profits. When the bill came due on the Junk Bonds, Hurwitz declared bankruptcy and took the money back to Texas. Including the pension funds that paid retirement benefits for employees...

"They" Now Declare That Hiroshima and Nagasaki Were a Bad Idea... What "They" Fail to Realize is That... Truman Bombed Japan To Prove to Stalin that The USA Really Had Atom Bombs and We Were Willing to Use Them...

"They" Also Say The Japanese Internment Camps of World War Two Were Wrong... However...

Those Internment Camps WORKED. No Japanese/Americans Committed Sabotage  While they were Locked UP. The Japanese Were Actively Trying to Defeat the USA in a War That Included such forgotten events as the Fire Balloons... These were Hydrogen Balloons Launched from Japan that Flew all the Way to the USA, Landed and Exploded. The Goal was to Set The Forests of Washington State, Oregon and Idaho on FIRE... Killing Millions... Thankfully, They were Launched IN THE WINTER when the Forests were WET with Snow... and While The Balloons DID Reach the USA and they DID Explode, They FAILED to Kill Millions of Americans... What IF We Had Thousands of Japanese/Americans FREELY Walking Around During World War Two... Who is to Say that One of Them Wouldn't have Set the Forests on Fire IN THE SUMMER? 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fu-Go_balloon_bomb
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internment_of_Japanese_Americans

 In Fact, Before Hiroshima and Nagasaki, The Emperor of Japan HAD A BAD ATTITUDE! He Was All in favor of Invading other Countries and Stealing their Wealth... AFTER He Was NUKED, His ATTITUDE CHANGED! All of a Sudden, Japan Became interested in Creating Great Cars, Trucks, Motorcycles, Stereos and Electronic Equipment... Ever hear of Sony, Yamaha, Roland, Honda, Nissan, Mitsubishi?
Without That "Bright Light Going Off in Their Minds." It's Possible That Here in California, We Would Be Speaking Japanese!

 Who Exactly are "They"??? Well, I often Hear this Opinion on PBS TV Shows... and the Senator Dianne Feinstein has Spoken out about how Horrible it was to Drop Atom Bombs on Japan... REALLY! As a matter of Fact, We Blew Up Over 100 Atom Bombs in NEVADA! and the Fallout Floated on the wind over UTAH and The Entire USA East of the Nevada Test Site... Brilliant! NUKING OURSELVES...

 "They" Also Complain About the Chinese Exclusion Act... WELL, That Prevented a Million Chinese from Coming Here... FANTASTIC! 
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chinese_Exclusion_Act

 After the Nuclear Meltdown in Fukushima, Ecology Researchers were concerned that Radioactive Pollution would Float over the Pacific Ocean and Cause Poisonous FISH in the USA. making them so Toxic that we could not Eat them... In Fact, The Oceanographers Did Find Small Amounts of Cesium from Fukushima in the Ocean off the Coast of Washington State, Oregon and California... However they Found Massive Amounts of Cesium Left Over From the Bikini Hydrogen Bomb Tests in The Pacific... Some of those Chemicals Have a Half Life of Thousands of Years... and The Tests Conducted in the 1960s are STILL HOT... and We Have Been Eating Radioactive Fish for Decades... 

Did You Ever Notice that The First Two Syllables of Fukushima are a Swear Word in English... F*CK YOU Shima!

HA HA! 
FOUR BILLION DOLLARS SPENT BUT NO NUKES!

 History:
A total of four nuclear reactors (two originally; and two of new designs), have been proposed for the site over a 40-year period, with over $4 billion having been spent (constructing the preliminary plant infrastructure and ordering/delivering/installing major equipment items).[3] But no nuclear reactor nor electric generating plant was ever completed; two cores of nuclear fuel were originally delivered however these were returned on plant deferral. Meaningful construction progress at the site was halted in 1988. Starting after its termination in 2005, Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) implemented an investment recovery effort to recoup some of the costs associated with Bellefonte. As part of the investment recovery effort, all or parts of some major plant components, including steam generators, feedwater heaters, large pumps and motors, demineralized water and condensate storage tanks, main condenser tubes, and some piping and valves were removed and sold. Additionally, some usable components were transferred from Bellefonte to other TVA facilities as spares.[3]

Nuclear Meltdown Near Los Angeles... Tucked away in the hills above the San Fernando and Simi valleys was a 2,800-acre laboratory with a mission that was a mystery to the thousands of people who lived in its shadow. In a place called Area IV of the Santa Susana Field Laboratory (SSFL), there was a secret collaboration between the U.S. government and private companies to test the limits of nuclear power. https://data.nbcstations.com/national/KNBC/la-nuclear-secret/

A failure of governmental candor: The fire at the contaminated Santa Susana Field Laboratory... The Woolsey Fire began on November 8 at the Santa Susana Field Laboratory (SSFL), located adjacent to Simi Valley, California, and enveloped much of the lab’s grounds, eventually burning all the way to Malibu and the Pacific Ocean, impacting nearly 100,000 acres. Because of widespread radioactive and toxic chemical contamination at the Santa Susana site from several nuclear reactor accidents, including a partial meltdown, and tens of thousands of rocket engine tests, the public had reason to be concerned that smoke from the fire carried contamination offsite.

a Page From My Autobiography
~~~~~~ (~);-} ~~~~~~


One summer, My First Wife JoAnn and I rode bicycles from New York City to Washington DC. It took 2 months and we camped at private campgrounds in rural New Jersey and Maryland. First, we had listened to the stories of a co worker about their fabulous bicycle trip all winter long and that inspired us to do a similar voyage. JoAnn sewed a tent and a sleeping bag for two on her sewing machine. We outfitted two ten speed bicycles with saddlebags, disassembled then and put them in cardboard boxes. Rode a Greyhound Bus for three days from Santa Clara to NYC. A friend of my brother's picked us up and we stayed in his home and rested from the bus ride. After three days on a bus JoAnn's feet were so swollen that she couldn't put her shoes on. I assembled the bicycles (wrong) and we started out. The rear wheel on JoAnns bike rubbed against the brake pad... After an hour she convinced me that something was wrong and I fixed her bike. We rode from 20 to 50 miles a day and often stayed a few days at particularly excellent campgrounds. The owners of farms in rural New Jersey often had campgrounds with swimming pools on their farms in order to pick up some cash. They would make reservations with friends of theirs down the road and we enjoyed a guided tour... I remember that the road towards the Delaware River was downhill for 60 miles... Quite fun to zoom, zoom, zoom at a rapid speed... And then thee other side of the river was UPHILL for 60 miles... Grueling torture. We stayed a week near Washington DC and rode the bus downtown to visit the Smithsonian. Somehow we had enough money to survive without working for two months... I don't remember how...


Jo-Ann recommended that I go to West Valley Junior College and study Electronic Drafting. After ONE year of school I was able to get a job in Silicon Valley. 

I remember buying a slice of Redwood Burl at That Store/Gallery on Highway 9 directly across the Street from San Lorenzo High School. We were taking a Stained Glass Window Making Class at West Valley Junior College Night School. I made a Red Rose Framed by that Burl... and it hung in the Window of my Father's House for decades... and... I noticed the ERROR I made in the construction of that window... and it bugged me for about 10 seconds every time I saw it... I also made a Clock from a slice of Burl... and It hung in the Living Room... The School was right next door to a drive in Movie Theater and at Night we could walk over and see the movies without paying. Saw "Carrie" there... My Father Bought a Stained Glass Window for His Office from Mike Coolie... a Business Expense and Fully Tax Deductible because it Had the Name J.D.Vanderlaan - Realtor Etched into the window...

My first Wedding.  Jo-Ann and I were living in a Duplex in Santa Clara, California and She was working the Graveyard Shift at National Semiconductor Microprocessor Division and I was working at System Industries. I had to close up the house before the wedding because we were not coming back for a week and accidentally cut my arm on a window that I was trying to close. It had a crank that was not functioning well and I just pushed on the pane of glass which broke. I got blood on my WHITE TUXEDO. I had a small scar on my left wrist for years. It was a joke that day - people kidded me about slashing my wrists to commit suicide instead of marrying Jo-Ann. We were married in Mission Santa Clara. The Mission was very cool and dark. As a Student at University of Santa Clara she was allowed to use the Mission for her Wedding. Any religion was allowed... When we met the Minister he asked me the date I was Baptized... I guess that's a common fill in the blank question... and I told him I had never been Baptized as I was an Atheist... He was Shocked! but performed the ceremony anyway. It was July 4th, 1976. The wedding was a BIG Production affair with invitations, registered gifts at Valley Fair Shopping Center - Emporium and Macys, little bags of Almonds in a Hard white sugar Coating, and Bridesmaids in Matching Dresses, Grooms in White Tuxes, Joe Franck was my best man, I wanted Barry Hill but he was Busy at work as a Park Ranger and Couldn't attend. We then rode in an open Model T Ford to a room where there was a Country and Western Band playing for our reception. Then we drove to the Hyatt Regency in San Francisco and had a drink in the revolving restaurant on top. Excellent view of the fireworks in many cities. Berkeley, Oakland, Sausalito... you can see very far... Then we drove to Canada, camped outdoors in a forest of trees with white blossoms. I had a hay fever reaction to that plant and had a stuffed nose. Then we rode the Pacific National Exhibit Roller Coaster. It was really scary and you have to hold on tight to keep your seat. We also rode a Bicycle built for two in Lyons Gate Park... Then we stayed in My Mother in Laws Mansion in Pollack Pines near Lake Tahoe. It was under construction and we slept in a walk in closet in sleeping bags. I remember that we drank a lot and I liked going out to the street and lying down to watch the Stars. Elevation 4,000 feet - almost no city lights... and the smell of the sugar pines was strong... There was no danger of getting run over by a car. You could see the lights approaching about five minutes before they got to where we were.  

My first wedding was quite an event! The Bicentennial! July 4th 1976... My brother attended but made sure he told me that he was MISSING a Giant Sailboat Event in New York City... where he lived... and I had to pay him back by attending his Daughter's wedding in a SUIT and SOBER...

My Second Wedding: Victoria and I got married at the County Courthouse in Oroville, California. About the year 2000. We were living together in a Small house on Highway 99 just north of Chico. She was working as an accounting secretary/data entry clerk and I was making Plastic Parts at the WREX Products Factory. The Justice of the Peace has a beautiful indoor garden with waterfall. and AIR CONDITIONING. It was very hot outdoors but indoors it was cool and pleasant with the Fountain/waterfall making bubbly sounds. We had no witnesses so the County Government provided people to sign the forms.
