I also think you are right. I went to amazon and see this posting showing what Hahn is doing now for vocation:

I AM AMAZED AT THIS STORY AND BOOK...TOTALLY TRUE,
March 11, 2004

Reviewer: rickeeee (see more about me) from Milputtlu, Germany

David Hahn as a young boy somehow decided to build a nuclear reactor in his mother's garden shed. He came very close. His genius propelled him to secure the right equipment including coffee cans, wire, rubber balloons, common flour, and off the shelve items from Home Depot.

He actually built a real working nuclear reactor. All he needed was radioactive material that he collected from objects suck as glow in the dark paint, smoke detectors, and Three Mile Island surplus.

An overhead satellite that measures radioactivity measured extremely high levels of radioactivity emitting from his mothers garden shed in a little village in Michigan.

Hahn, now a 27 year old, works for a secret origination (EPA) that tracks other countries nuclear capabilities with the same satellite technology that exposed his creation ten years before. Hats off to Ken Silverstein for writing a riveting and radioactive book. A must read for everyone.

It should be noted that Mr. Hahn continues to emit a low level of radiation from four years of exposing himself. We wish him the best. He will never need a night light.

Not sure if it's accurate or not but is interesting that he's apparently working at something interesting. I read the original story in Harpers a number of years ago and was fascinated, but wondered if he had ever been able to use his OJT attained knowledge.

I would bet that it is NOT accurate.

Actually, the were called to investigate possible auto theft and found a toolbox marked as radioactive in his trunk.

I wonder how many books have been sold based on this latest hyping?

If you call swabbing decks in the navy interesting.
