Barb we are the recipients of all that radioactive crap on the B.C. coast. Meanwhile the government says don`t worry everything is OK! http://www.straight.com/article-415211/ ... -spikes-bc

Since the earth's atmosphere is basically a "closed system", hasn't everyone been exposed to Chernobyl many times now?

One report actually said that the tsunami debris WOULDN'T be radioactive...because the tsunami sent debris out into the Pacific a week or two before the nuclear plant's explosions. And that if any radiation did "land on" the debris, that the ocean would've washed it off by the time it arrives here.

Sounds like BS to me, but I'm a 100% uneducated rank amateur on the topic.

I remember when I was a teenager in Vancouver, I'd occasionally hear of someone two blocks away who had cancer.
Now it's somebody in every house on every street.

Governments simply blame it on unhealthy lifestyles. Ya right.
