Loose Screw Shuts Down Nuclear Power Station
<snip>

MADRID (Reuters) - A Spanish nuclear power station has been shut indefinitely because of a small missing screw weighing just four to five grams that fell off a machine during refueling, nuclear officials say.

The Zorita plant, located in the central Castille-La Mancha region, cannot reopen until a full report on the screw is completed, a spokesman for the national Nuclear Security Council told Reuters on Monday.

shut down an administration so easily over a fallen snack food.

3. GWB must have a guy with a magnet following him around
to pick up all the miscellaneous hardware that falls out every time he sneezes.
