I can't for the life of me come up with something that could constitute a threat to Palo Wormy (other than a nuke, which would, afterall, be redundant).

How could anyone hi-jack an airplane and crash it into the facility with the current security in place? I doubt that a direct hit from a commercial airliner would cause much of a breach.

What else could comromise the reactors?

Armed forces? Not likely as I think they would stand out like a foreign army on our soil.

Now, I don't deny that upgraded security is wise because, after all, the whole concept of terrorism is to attack in a fashion NO one would imagine.

OK Freepers, use your imagination and tell me what you would do to blow the plants.

Winner will be announced at a later date.

I'd assume that the nearby Luke AFB F-16's would provide substantial air protection for Palo Verde.

Maybe the greatest vulnerability would be from an "inside job"?
