Catchy Nuclear Songs
What do you get when you put a bunch of nuclear scientists together for a conference? Well -- either you get one very boring conference or somebody tries to liven things up. That's what happened back in 2002 when the American Nuclear Society held a contest for sing-a-long songs dealing with nuclear technology.
I know what you're thinking -- surely everybody knows dozens of sing-a-long nuclear songs - but alas, it was tough sledding.
Fortunately, a team that included my mother-in-law won that year with a knock-off of "Yankee Doodle" that was called "Neutron Doodle"
What can I say? I like it! Hopefully you will too.
Here's more on the backstory. Enjoy.
In the same topic, GQ had a great rundown a few days ago about nuclear power. Why we aren't reprocessing spent fuel is beyond me.
