US nuclear lab loses secret data

From the BBC: news.bbc.co.uk...

...Two data storage devices were revealed to be missing last week from a department called the weapons physics directorate.

The incident is the latest in a series of embarrassments that have prompted federal officials to put the Los Alamos management contract up for bidding. ...

Find the miscreants and tighten security. Don't sell the place.
