Wall St. Journal asks: How concerned are you about radiation from Japan

Japanese authorities said they found radioactivity in Tokyo tap water at a level potentially harmful long-term to infants, as the country's nuclear crisis broadened into a major public health issue. Radiation levels in the air in Tokyo were at four times normal levels, though still within government limits. Officials said the heightened levels could have been due to recent rainstorms that brought radioactive material down from the air. Scientists say that trace amounts of radiation are now detectible in the U.S. What do you think? Are you changing any behaviors? Reconsidering food sources? Thinking of buying a radiation detector? Or is it background-level radiation not a concern?
