Subject: RE: Recycled Nuclear Banjos
Silly boys! The wood comes from the porch of the education building, not from the reactor. I would have liked to hear him play one.

I liked this part:

"Spanners used in the demolition of a nuclear power plant are now helping to refurbish a steam engine.

Made to imperial measurements, the tools loosened nuts and bolts at Dounreay which modern metric equipment could not."

Modern metric - it just doesn't have the magic.
