That's correct, and that's thousands of years. California's agriculture source for much of the nations food supply and it gets the most radiation exposure. The government has been detecting very high levels in seaweed along the California coast from San Diego to Cresent City. Of course the problems get worse the further north you go ...

What language are you speaking?

Do the Math guy, Fukashima is an Armageddon event. It has the potential to be a game changer in a non mutant existence.

BTW, congratulations on your award.

I haven't been following certain aspects of this.
But this link shows the Berkley rain water test (image capture). I would include the original Berkley link, but for some reason it is now missing. When you click on the links it is missing.

(if you don't like the link, oh well.)

Link works...

Here is another story that was linked to the one you posted.

Contact your elected officials and see if they'll get off their asses and get the world leaders to take it seriously.

My State Senator just returned from Japan, and is raising the alarm of how unstable the situation really is.

As you know American's have very little, if any power in our "representative" gov't. It takes a lot of people to move these dolt's.

Posting the story and informing people is where one starts, contacting rep's as i said is another level.

Not buying anything from Japan is another.

What are your suggestions?
