James H. gets a no-prize with a siren on top for bringing us a classic "and this is a problem, how?" political hairball:
Forty-six air-raid-style sirens, purchased for $1.6 million more than a year ago for Pickering and Darlington nuclear stations [as part of an emergency alarm], are gathering dust in an Ajax warehouse while Pickering politicians try to come up with an alternative that doesn't make as much noise.
...
In Pickering, local opposition to the 27 planned sirens has been strong in the Bay Ridges and West Shore communities, where residents feel the sirens would lower property values and possibly create panic if they ever sounded.
Because, ya know, radioactive fallout is not something anyone should really panic over, right?
