The Nevada National Security Site, home to tens of millions of cubic feet of low-level radioactive waste — and location of over a thousand Cold War nuclear weapons tests — is now being guarded by robots.

re: chicken nuggets
It's the rampant bacteria and subsequent amonia that gross me all to hell. The squish and grindage of everything but the cock-a-doodle-doo has me "eh". If you're going to eat critters you might as well eat all of them.
