Prayers at a nuclear power facility?

Just wondering something.

On the day the shooter was having his fun at Fort Hood, two friends of my son came by to borrow a camping backpack he'd left here. I'd been out of the house all day running errands and they asked me if I'd heard the news of the shooter. Of course, I hadn't and they began to describe what they'd seen on TV so far.

One of the guys confused another current story with the Fort Hood news and the other friend corrected him saying, "No, that's another story that was reported today."

What he was describing was how a priest, a nun and two other people had cut their way through three fences at a nuclear power facility somewhere. The four then fell to the ground and began to pray before they were arrested.

While that isn't big news compared to the Fort Hood story, it's interesting in light of all the terrorist stuff we get about our vulnerabilities in the realm of nuclear plants across the country. So I expected to hear that story at some point too, but I never did. Although I usually avoid news programming, I still expected to hear someone mention the other story and never have.

So did anyone else read or hear of the four who invaded a nuclear plant?
 
well, regardless of the scariness of someone getting that far, if you are going to pray somewhere, a nuclear facility could use the good vibes...;)
