Wh...Time for me to eat my hat on the nuclear issue. While individually the risk is negligible (except in Japan), there will probably be an small aggregate statistical effect from contamination on cancer rates worldwide, thanks to Japan completely fucking up nuclear safety. I think it's reasonable to say that if Japan can't be relied on to do industrial-scale nuclear safely, then neither can the US over the long term. BTW, the event is now ranked at "7" on the International Nuclear Event Scale, which is on par with Chernobyl.funkalunatichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14488316773436349465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2083200247132907218.post-53458308620077614462011-04-11T11:24:37.696-08:002011-04-11T11:24:37.696-08:00http://www.euractiv.com/en/health/radiation-risks-...http://www.euractiv.com/en/health/radiation-risks-fukushima-longer-negligible-news-503947<br />Alaska is specifically mentioned toward the bottom of the article, they are advising pregnant women, infants & children to not drink milk, eat leafy vegetables or creamy cheeses. They mention Alaska has radiation 8-10% higher than theirs.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2083200247132907218.post-71421756687096779902011-04-11T11:10:32.234-08:002011-04-11T11:10:32.234-08:00An interesting blog I've been watching is-Clif...An interesting blog I've been watching is-Cliff Mass Weather Blog.
