[ RadSafe ] BAD INFORMATION

[Peterson, Ken]

It is interesting to note how the US Government publishes erroneous
information in the 1950's, and it STILL impacts the military and public
today.  It would be funny if it weren't so serious.  Note that: "By the
time the debris stops falling, there is no radiation hazard.", "In most
cases, if you are not wounded or burned, you need not worry about
radiation."  Or radiation exposure from airbursts can be avoided by
maneuvering your ship or vehicle.....
