Seen this on the news today and it makes you wonder where it could be. This is serious.

I just got an AP update and the stolen container seems to have been found and now appears to be empty. I wonder where the goodies are.

UPDATE 2: Radioactive cobalt apparently found.

Never mind.

Maybe they just wanted the truck, and got scared when their pee started to glow in the dark. Si.

The way I heard it on NBC nightly news, in the midst of my wife getting my daughter ready for her Nutcracker performance: The truck and Carbon 60 were recovered near the gas station where it was stolen and is on the way to a waste disposal facility. If that's the case, the thieves most likely discovered what they had stolen and didn't want to get caught with it. Again, if you've ever been in the room with a woman trying to put makeup on a 9 year old girl then, you must understand if I heard wrong.

Ummm...cobalt 60. Carbon 60 is buckyballs (fullerene). Entirely understandable.

Hey Chico, ¿por qué cree usted que esta camioneta se siente tan pesado, como está llena de plomo?

No sé por Miguel, pero tengo un poco de tacos calentamiento en la parte superior de esa cosa en la parte posterior que se ilumina.

Something about contaminated tacos?

Geez, you'd think they'd have better than Taco Bell in Mexico??

(No, really, I didn't understand a word of this).
