Snowmobile or surfboard?

Some things just aren't right. There was a snowmobile in the parking lot at work this morning.

Later in the day, I found this link at the NEI Nuclear Notes blog.
The dialogue on the pros and cons of holding Hawaii’s first Constitutional Convention in 30 years has not yet mentioned one critical reason for having a convention: The need to repeal the prohibition on nuclear power in Hawaii that the 1978 Con-Con established. We need to do this before spiralling oil prices devastate Hawaii‘s economy.

The 1978 Convention added Article XI, Section 8 to the State Constitution: “No nuclear fission power plant shall be constructed or radioactive material disposed of in the State without the prior approval by a two-thirds vote in each house of the legislature.”

Oh yeah!

I'll be looking for work at the Banzai Pipeline Nuclear Power Station if that amendment is repealed.
