I know, I know, we’re milking this O’Reilly thing here, but a recent alternate tape of his meltdown on Inside Edition years ago has just surfaced. Here’s what really happened:

Today’s Brattleboro Reformer reports on yet another incident at Vermont Yankee:

Technicians were in the process of moving the cask from the reactor’s spent fuel pool to a concrete storage pad outside the plant when the cask dropped to the floor.

The crane had operated with no problems during demonstration runs that were performed for the NRC during the past month, said Williams.

But wait: it gets better:

The fuel assemblies are being moved out of the spent fuel pool because it is has no room for any more.

Without the fuel transfer, the pool would remain full, forcing Vermont Yankee to shut down.

Sometimes I just can’t believe that we rely on this stuff for anything
