Indian point has been a constant menace to the NYC region. When the bi-partisan report of an imminent attack on our mainland was published just after Bush assumed office in 2001, I assumed Indian Point might be a prime target. When I checked, I discovered that anyone could drive through its unguarded gates. I reported this to the NY Times which investigated for a time. A bit later the guards there themselves complained that they were inadequately staffed. Indian Point is owned by a Texas outfit -- Entergy

What next?
