A bad wind surely blows. Tumbleweeds from the highly contaminated Hanford Nuclear Complex, in Washington, have taken flight. Their roots soak up the toxic water. This Saint attempts to divert the radioactive weed, from blowing into schoolyards and shopping malls. The ghostly tumbleweeds are a reminder of all that is tragic about nuclear power and weaponry. If we cannot solve the aftermath, it stands with reason, (for those who think reasonably) not to start the use at all.
