@newsguyusa@flipboard.social I grew up in Aiken and my dad is retired from SRS. He was not on the nuclear side of things there. I’m glad their safety measures were functioning.

@newsguyusa@flipboard.social I used to believe that agencies like this would tell us if there was cause for concern. Now I hope they would. See how trust has been eroded.
