“But anyone who has even a very slight concern with this here in the US; as personal health risk; is a complete airhead”

Well excuuuuse me! Not that I think we are really going to get any heavy levels of radiation here but we have a 4 month pregnant daughter/daughter in law and 2 year old grandchild in San Jose so frankly I don’t mind looking at the meter and feeling good to see that its a low reading.

I feel better to get the reassurance from an instrument rather than from you or the Marxist Regime currently running our country.

I think the definition of “airhead” may well extend beyond the person who posted the link and those who would like to take a look at it.

I understand your concern .
My point was that people shouldn't be panicked by something that they know full and well isn't a threat.

If I had a pregnant daughter on the West coast; I would be watching the levels also even though I knew there was no danger to her.

As the poster said yesterday; we tested 100’s of nuclear weapons in the desert here in the 50’s and 60’s.

GG,

It is interesting that you see yourself in the Airhead comment, prompting your response.

I do not know you, nor assume that you fit the description, but I encourage you to find information from sources you trust about the effects of radiation on the human body. Listening to the “news” or any government would convince you that we will all die within hours of the “radioactive cloud” hitting the west coast.

Quick question: Do you eat bananas regularly? Good source of potassium aren't they. Did you know that if you eat 1 banana per day that you are ingesting the same amount of radiation that the folks 10 miles away from the reactor, in the radioactive cloud are getting?

I understand that you feel concerned, but I would recommend you gather the facts you need to either justify your concern, or to alleviate it.
