 The radioactive boy scout:
When a teenager attempts to build a breeder reactor

Earlier this month, David Hahn, the "radioactive boy scout" who years ago tried to build a nuclear reactor in his basement, had been busted again. This time, he was nabbed for stealing smoke detectors allegedly to get at the bit of radioactive material inside for experimentation. For the back story on Hahn, check out Ken Silverstein's 1998 Harper's Magazine article "[a style="color: rgb(0, 0, 191); font-weight: bold;" href="vny!://harpers.org/archive/1998/11/0059750"]The radioactive boy scout: When a teenager attempts to build a breed reactor[/a]," now freely available on the magazine's Web site.
