The FDA is disingenuous in its attempt to compare the radiation from a major nuclear accident to radiation exposures in everyday life....
.....No matter how small the dose might be, it is disingenuous to compare an exposure to a specific radioisotope that is released by a major nuclear accident, with radiation exposures in every-day life. The FDA spokesperson should have informed the public that radioiodine provides a unique form of exposure in that it concentrates rapidly in dairy products and in the human thyroid. The dose received, based on official measurements, may be quite small, and pose an equally small risk. However, making a conclusion on the basis of one measurement is fragmentary at best and unscientific at worst.
Then read the last paragraph in link..... What about the scanners in airports? Who make the CT scanners in hospitals?

Only cosmetic damage. Nothing to see here. Move along.
Karl seems to have an understanding of MATH.
I would like to help you repair the damage but I think I'll keep my distance. Maybe another planet.
I'm thinking the helocs may send the banks to HELL.
Been reading TICKER for years & I like his approach from the math prospective.
Could we say that's the bottom line?
