The path of the tornado across town put the building directly in line with the tornado, and the tornado made a DIRECT hit on the reactor building. Oddly. the tornado was not able to "touch" the reactor core, near the bottom of a cylinder of concrete, with concerte 3 feet thick at the top 10 feet and 8-9 thick feet below. The lower, thicker section, by the way, is actually below ground level. As far as I (Kansas native) know, there is just no such thing as a tornado capable of driving through 8-9 feet of concrete 12 feet below ground level. The final NRC report (available online at NRC.GOV) was positve. “Wonder where these numbers would be if Kansas State University’s reactor suffered a more frontal hit from this week’s tornadoes?”

When the Esperanza Ctr went to the city council about the new ordinance costing people to gather at the behest of the City Council, Hardberger was heard to tell his assistant that he didn't want that group in the city chambers again... This is a guy that is married to Linda Hardberger (The first curator at the McNay museum who now runs Green Spaces Allliance) and who is the grandfather of two kids by the Hollywood guy T.L.Jones... I remember that Linda Hardberger ran the concession stand at the Witte before she married Hardberger and also that Hemisfair was sold to the citizens of SA as the campus for the future University of Texas.... Ha! Since I attended Edison, Garner and Ft. Sam Elementary before such things existed, I remember that The powers that be (Red McCombs got the food concession) moved Brackenridge's house from the Hemisfair park to IWU and also dozens of others... The thing to remember is that blacks were not allowed to use Hemisfair - the reason that they didn't have any entrances on the Eastern side of the park, and now Hardberger wants to put condos and strip shopping centers there... I was at the 1974 meeting of the Council that heralded the beginnings of COPS and amazed that the end result is Mary Alice Cisneros who recently got caught trying to sell the Mercado and La Villita to the family behind Mi Tierra...
