A transuranic is plutonium. I had mixed up cesium with the transuranic plutoinium, which has also been released from Fukushima.

I read a lot about nuclear stuff a year or so ago. Came across transuranics then. Never needed to know about it until Fukushima blew up and really don't care to, but the people here that know don't even want to admit that it is worse than anything else man has released. So i made a stab at it and improperly used the word transuranic.

Not like i released plutonium upon the public. No big deal.
