Hope

When I was growing up in the 60s we used to dream about the day when nuclear warheads would actually be dismantled instead of manufactured in the thousands. But the idea of turning those swords into plowshares seemed such an impossibility.then.

Yet today I watch out my window at work as a new wing is being constructed on our plant. Its purpose is to transform uranium from nuclear weapons into fuel for reactors for our nation's electric utilities. To have come so far makes one hopeful for the future.
