I dont think we should be consuming anything coming out of the Pacific ocean today, especially shellfish. Is hoof rot directly tied to radiation poisoning? Are deer and elk safe to consume? What about berries and mushrooms? Are we not being advised and warned about a health threat? I would'nt be feeding my kids any local NW dairy products either.

If this is the first inclination of radiation coming straight at us from Japan, you need to think about your world a little more often. And yes its in the grass, air, water, etc....our milk has shown alarming levels.
I LOVE sushi and Japanese food, as soon as day one of fukushima I quit buying imported food from Japan.... After Chernobyl happened, Europeans mostly drank imported milk for years.
Ive mostly been using costco organic rice milk and drinking water from deep underground.
Is there more radiation in the sound than ever? You bet
Am I going Humpy fishing tonight? You bet....cant let everything ruin a good time
Hey atleast you dont have foreigners in your country shooting DU all over the place until you fight back with whatever you got... :dunno:

I found the part about "Remember that Denver has a lower cancer rate than the rest of the U.S., not a higher one." To be quite interesting. And we are seeing nowhere near the levels found in Denver. In fact, most of Japan is not seeing the levels found in Denver! I'm not ready to quit drinking milk, give up eating seafood, removing minerals in my drinking water through reverse osmosis, or wearing my tinfoil hat quite yet.

Hoof rot was happening way before Fukushima. Just sayin'. :dunno::yeah: So what are we all supposed to do? Hide in our homes, line the windows with foil. And never go outside and do anything fun again. Why cause your afraid. :dunno: Not me, I am going to continue to enjoy life as long as I am able to live it. I am probably more likely to die driving to my hunting spot than I am from eating my deer.

If you're depending on your deer, there's a good chance you'll starve before the radiation get you! :chuckle: :chuckle: j/k

Probably get more radiation going up in the mountains to hunt than from Japan.
or a transcontinental flight....
or changing the battery in a smoke detector....
Besides, the solution to polution is dilution...and there is a lot of water between here and Japan
just sayin....

Its not :tinfoil: to be concerned.... it IS leaking radioactive water into the water table and then into the ocean. when they remove the damaged rods into the storage facility that is complete in NOV there could be a major problem... :twocents:
Post by: xd2005 on October 09, 2013, 01:59:10 PM
With that said, the amount of dilution that would occur between Japan and here would likely make any impact minor, if noticeable.
I should also note, not too long ago there was a piece going around Facebook discussing this with quite a bit of hyperbole. It included an image and implied/indicated it was a map of radiation spread, when, in fact, it was simply the tsunami wave height map by NOAA.

Fukushima plume headed to West
Three years ago, I wrote a commentary opposing nuclear power due to concerns about nuclear plant safety and waste disposal. Three months later, Fukushima experienced a major earthquake and tsunami that caused three of the six Fukushima Daiichi reactors to lose power and melt down, including Reactor 3 that utilizes MOX fuel containing highly-toxic plutonium. A fourth reactor’s fuel pool is in danger of collapse if hit by another major earthquake. Although Fukushima, like Chernobyl, is classified as a Category 7 nuclear disaster (on the International Nuclear Event Scale), Fukushima remains a far greater threat than Chernobyl. Chernobyl was largely contained six months after the disaster. Fukushima may never be largely contained. Fukushima’s initial release of radiation was not as acute as Chernobyl’s. Unfortunately, the Fukushima complex was constructed on an ancient riverbed on the coast. Since TEPCO (Tokyo Electric Power Company) is continuously cooling the reactors by injecting seawater into the three reactors in meltdown, Fukushima continues to release hundreds of tons of highly radioactive fluids (millions of times higher than the safe limit for ingestion) into groundwater and into the ocean every day. A resulting plume of seawater and debris is devastating sea life in the Pacific Ocean as it moves east. Because this plume contains Strontium 90, whole fish populations in the Pacific could become unfit for human consumption. Strontium 90 bio-accumulates and behaves like calcium, building up in bone tissue causing leukemia. Note that this plume is due to hit the West Coast in late 2014. Eric TeegardenBrier

This is follow up for those of you who dismissed this issue because no MAIN stream media picked this up. IMO The Everett Herald is Main Stream.

Buy a Geiger counter.
After $300 you will find that there's more radiation in the banana you fed your kid than the fish you caught for dinner.
LMFAO!!!! no kidding!!!
then go wave the probe by a smoke detector...bet it would peg the meter!!!
I measured a Luminox watch once with a frisker...WOW, them things are hot...all that tritium on the dial was over 750 counts!!!
