they will stop selling milk until it is tested for the isotope, polonium

They could try to sell it to the Russians.

Hmmmmmm. In other news, unscrupulous termite inspectors have been known to carry dead termites to plant at a prospective cleint victim's property. I hope the integrity of everyone who gets near these wells is beyond reproach.

I would think the Chinese would be the customers we would want to sell to … paybacks and all.

Congress must immediately act to stop the “actinide decay chain”.

This deadly chain is responsible for terror isotopes such as Polonium 210, Bismuth 218, and the infamous Radon!

A simple alteration in the Weak Force* will stop the beta decay links in the chain and keep the children safe from polonium contaminated Earth.

*I mean it must be easy, it’s a Weak Force.

But the Russians like to use those radioactive beverages to deal with ‘troublemakers’.

California as a law and we cannot import milk.

Hmmm ... perhaps a uranium deposit in the neighborhood?

>>>Two dairy farms have dumped milk after the discovery of a naturally occurring radioactive isotope in 25 nearby drinking water wells.

Would this have anything to do with Spencer Abraham having nuclear waste dumped into the mountains in Nevada?

>>>A study released Friday by the U.S. Geological Survey found the radioactive isotope in 24 private wells and one public well around Fallon, about 60 miles east of Reno. Polonium-210 is known to cause cancer in humans.<<<

Maybe the EPA will put a plastic dome over them like they did in the Simpson’s Movie.

I wonder how long their wells have been contaminated?

I haven't seen the Simpson's movie yet.

I don’t know. But from reading the timeline from the AGI Government Affairs Program. It is quite possible the interim storage containers could have been there since 2001. The licensing wasn’t the same for interim storage vs. permanent storage.

Oh, I recommend. It was the best political satire I’ve seen since Chuck Jones.

Speaking of Uranium, you do realize that there is a good reason why folks who live in the NW corner of New Jersey have “black quartz” in their backyards.

Shhh, you are suppose to say Radon. This way no one realizes it is uranium in the drinking water.
