err... if you inhale a single little piece of radioactive crap and it sticks in your lungs or bloodstream you're EFFED. It being diluted only lowers the chance of an individual getting it but increases the area over which an individual can be affected.

In any case, nasty stuff.

Yeah I love this. People are so scared they are buying something to protect them from the Deadly Radioactive cloud on its way from Japan. They are also buying packs of Smokes with their Iodine tabs. Mental Midgets.  :x

Better yet...people talk on their phones and text while driving!  That's going to be more dangerous to you than any nuclear power plant is!

Clouds of radioactive matter can actually hit anyone.
In the 60's, the French were doing lots of tests in the pacific. Oddly enough, Europe got a bit of that radiation, noteably Iceland, which had the dark-sided honour of Europe's most radioactive meat and milk untill....Chernobyl.
