This story was on Al Jazeera and RT few weeks ago, I was thinking is just BS conspiracy , but now some of US media picks up the story; I understand is getting serious, the underground fire gets closer to this "illegal" nuclear waste ,few thousands tones of uranium waste leftover from Manhattan project in St.Louis neighborhood . Interesting video below, in US news, they covered the entire landfill with plastic foil and hoses to collect potential harmful gases and in some other images I've seen gas tankers trucks. The winds are blowing 90% of the time from west to heavy populated east coast, ill ask Santa for a Geiger counter and some potassium iodide candies for Halloween.
I remember the Chernobyl disaster in May 1987, I used to live in northern Romania, about 400-600 miles away, the government didn't tell us anything, i was in college they sent nurses and gave us iodide tablets, we found out after 2 weeks listening illegal radio stations Voice of America and Free Europe.
Sad to see same communist style media silence and here.
Sorry for my poor English, I was just thinking to share this because could be important, I'll st.u now.

"Beneath the surface of a St. Louis-area landfill lurk two things that should never meet: a slow-burning fire and a cache of Cold War-era nuclear waste, separated by no more than 1,200 feet.
Government officials have quietly adopted an emergency plan in case the smoldering embers ever reach the waste, a potentially "catastrophic event" that could send up a plume of radioactive smoke over a densely populated area near the city's main airport."
