BOMB'S LETHAL LEGACY, THE: NOVA 055572
The Department of Energy's (DOE) Hanford Nuclear Reservation, which occupies 570 square miles of eastern Washington state, grew from its origins in the Manhattan Project into the world's largest atomic fac- lity. In 1986, after 40 years of operations hidden behind a veil of national security, it became publicly known that Hanford had released into the air over 500,000 curies of radioactive iodine-131 during its first decades of operation. This compares with 15 curies released at Three Mile Island. The story of Hanford exposes the conflict between national security and public accountability. It explores the options available for cleaning up contaminated nuclear facilities and looks at how science is expanding these options.

CARETAKER'S DILEMMA, THE 010277
Introduces children to the convenience and efficiency of our number system by creating a make-believe time when each number had a name like "Marion" or "George." Because the names lacked system or sequ- ence, people couldn't keep their numbers in order. A caretaker was enlisted to help out, but the numbers rebelled and the system broke down. The clever caretaker then invented ten symbols, plus an ingen- ious place-value system, making the expression of any number possible and greatly simplifying addition.
