Time change and Hanford as a tourist destination

[jenk]

From Crosscut: "Built in 1943 and 1944 and shut down since 1968, the Manhattan Project B Reactor is now a tourist attraction in Eastern Washington on the site where plutonium was processed for the atomic bombs exploded in 1945 at the Trinity site in New Mexico and at Nagasaki, sparking the end of World War II."

Why Washington is still doing time changes after we passed a law to stop: Congress, specifically the House. (Patty Murray drove it through the Senate) https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/daylight-savings-time-qa-what-to-know-about-the-time-change/

Radcon, which is a helluva fun con, has been running a special pre-con event of visiting Hanford for ages.

When I was a kid, I visited Trojan Nuclear Power Plant on a school trip.

Cool! I visited the hydro plant under Snoqualmie Falls on a field trip, but not a nuclear plant. :) Snoqualmie is closer to me tho.
