And Stay off Their Lawns!

'Raging Grannies' arrested at Vermont Yankee protest - WCAX.COM Local Vermont News, Weather and Sports-: "A protest at Vermont Yankee on Tuesday ended in several arrests, with eight women landing citations for trespassing.

The protestors, known as 'The Raging Grannies,' blocked the main gate while calling for the immediate shutdown of the nuclear reactor.

The eldest woman with the group was 91 years old and has now been arrested seven times for protesting the nuclear plant. Five of the other women were either in their 60s or 70s."

I guess Raging Grannies wouldn't be a good name for a rock band.
