Hi folks, Steve Skutnik here—you may know me from The Neutron Economy blog. I’m also currently an assistant professor of nuclear engineering at the University of Tennessee. I’ll be here with Suzy Hobbs-Baker (of PopAtomic Studios) and Laura Scheele live-blogging the public hearing on the use of surplus weapons plutonium in MOX fuel. I’ve also got a healthy contingent of eager students from the University of Tennessee here as well, eager to speak up for the nonproliferation benefits of disposing of surplus plutonium in MOX fuel.
