In Pittsburgh I worked with a man who had formerly worked at LANL in plasma physics. When I told him about my relationship to NM he said the it is a state on welfare. He was referring to the percentage of that State's economy based on Federal $$. Highest in the US? I am aware of many projects at LANL that are not about weapons but others know more about that than I.
