This is obviously a test.  If one of these can go unnoticed out in the 
open in Oak Hill for several days then it can go unnoticed under Yuccy 
Mountain for eternity.   Got me curious now. I might have to drive out 
and take a look. I'll wear my lead undies.  Ooh! Maybe me and Eric ought 
to go wander around it with our radiation detectors and if anyone 
questions just tell them to go home "There's nothing here to worry 
about" with worried expressions.
