"You apparently did not comprehend the phrase "whether or not significant levels of radiation were involved" in the sentence of mine that you copied. "

Yup, sure did. That is why I said not with anyone who had a brain cell about radiation. I wasn't talking about the ignorant sheep who have bought all the "scare stories" put out by the anti-nuke nuts for the last fifty years.

"And, no, USPS does not currently employ radiation dection devices in most of its facilities."

If they DON'T have Geiger tubes on their conveyor lines at the automated sorting facilities, then the management of the USPS are fools. Geiger tubes are simple, cheap, and rugged. Of course, those sorting facilities don't comprise "most of its facilities"--those are comprised of podunk post offices out in the boonies, and really don't NEED radiation detection. However, since the automated facilities "see" virtually all the mail, that is where the detection capabilities should be installed.

Okay, you're obviously NOT postal as you would know how redundant the last part of your statement was.

By the way, we're not even allowed to have aspirin in our first-aid boxes in the USPS. Management is afraid of overdosers (especially in Dec.)!
