My Way News - DHS approves $450M biothreat lab at Kansas State
AP reports: "The Department of Homeland Security has approved a site at Kansas State University for a $450 million lab to study livestock diseases and some of the world's most dangerous biological threats."

Comment: When this was first being discussed I was very confident that the final decision would be no, they would not move the biolab from an island to the U.S. agricultural heartland, it was simply too foolish and ill considered to actually win approval. I was wrong. It's still unlikely that biohazards will escape the lab, but the danger to the surrounding community will be orders of magnitude greater if the unlikely does happen. Common sense loses again.
