Post by big john »

Just thought I'd mention it. I can walk about a mile from my house and see the cloud from the cooling towers.
They are closing it down some time this year. :pirate:

40 years?! Wow

Do you know why they are closing it?
You're only as young as you are right now. Make the best of it!

I was 19. I know of it. Watched news coverage. Don't think I understood it then.
