“I wouldn’t make fun of the poster who put up the link to the radiation monitoring instrument.”

Not making fun of the link; at least that was not my intention.
Just trying to point out the actual risks right now; from what we know; are essentially 0 for people in the US.

We have all of this instant information now at our fingertips that we never used to have.
In some ways it seems people are almost more uninformed about facts and science than they used to be (pre internet).

People can put all kinds of wild ideas (speculation with no facts) on the web; and people eat it up.
People need to seek facts and science when they hear things.
The Gulf oil spill brought up all kinds of wild ideas and conspiracy theories. Some from people on this forum.
Those all turned out to be false of course.
