  This place is not a place of honor. No highly esteemed deed is commemorated here. Nothing valued is here. This place is a message and part of a system of messages. Pay attention to it! Sending this message was important to us. We considered ourselves to be a powerful culture. Hard to imagine a circumstance in which such a statement is not a lie. In this case it's a real doozy; plutonium is the most valuable substance on Earth. On the other hand, maybe such a confused people do not deserve it.

  Those are proposed markers. Here's a real one.[1] That's the SL-1 reactor site, in Idaho. There, an experimental reactor ran away due to a control rod removal during maintenance, and blew apart in a steam explosion. This was in 1961. Already, that marker looks dated.
