Abstract:
Prostitution. That’s what State Rep. Lon Burnam, D-Tarrant County, compares nuclear research at Los Alamos National Laboratory to, and he’s coming to the university Thursday to make the case that the UT System should have nothing to do with managing the facility. The university’s nanotechnology research could be used to create low-grade nuclear weapons if the UT System wins a bid to manage Los Alamos, Burnam said.
