The nonprofit advocacy group ScienceDebate.org has posted their responses online. Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, and Jill Stein had all responded as of press time, and the group was awaiting responses from Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson.

    And, not just the nuclear industry:
    my wife is an educational assistant with a public school board. On paper, a lot of the kids with special needs have one-to-one workers, but in reality don't.
    There is one case she knows of where one person has 3 wheelchair bound kids on the second floor of the school.
    If there is a fire, they are not supposed to use the elevator, so ONE person is in charge of getting 3 non-walking kids down the stairs and out the door.

    And nothing will change unless those above are held responsible (and, of course, until something 'bad' happens...): then, maybe, something will change.

    It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye: here's hoping it's the eye of someone in charge.

    I told my wife she should start documenting EVERYTHING and COVER HER ASS.
    also suggested reaching out to a news agency 'whistle blowing' person/website.
