Great Bay National Nuclear Wildlife Refuge
All this time I thought the glow was from marital bliss, but I guess it's just some fallout from work: Radioactive waste may still be buried at Pease Tradeport: Air Force officials will be looking into possible radioactive contamination at an old weapons storage facility at Pease International Tradeport... The property in question is... surrounded by barbed wire. It is part of the Great Bay National Wildlife Refuge... [O]fficials have identified these facilities as places where items associated with nuclear weapons production were likely buried. I always found it suspicious that the old ammo dump had brand new shiny razor wire and black SUVs sometimes parked inside. I thought it might be a secret government black-ops project. Thank goodness it's just toxic waste.
