Radiation detected 400 miles off Japanese coast

1. When I hear about how safe things are with the radiation situation,

I keep flashing back to the three-eyed fish on Marge Simpson's dinner platter, and how Mr Burns suddenly decided that he couldn't bring himself to eat the fish from that pond outside his nuke power station.

Any researcher tht says these exposures are safe should be required to drink all the water they are testing (using reverse opsmsis to filter out the salt.) And then we can see how many of them have cancers, immune disorders, and are dead some five years from now.

My spouse has a Japanese pen pal, and her reports on what she is finding in the city streets of outlying Tokyo are really scary. And radioactivity doesn't disapate just because it moves some 400 miles away fromits source.
