[ RadSafe ] Fukushima Daiichi reactor decay heat

[Dan W McCarn]

Hi Jeff:

Just a note that sea fish constitutes a significant amount of the diet of
Japanese.  I would expect that many would already be nearly saturated in
iodine as a result.  I know that when I lived on the Gulf Coast, I certainly
consumed large amounts of shellfish and fish, and was pretty much saturated
with iodine - at least my fingers were having iodine reactions several times
a week...

This information will all come out over time. 

Working the problem is far more important now.

with the people at the reactor concentrating at fixing the issues and not
getting more news out. Just my oppinion.

would like to know. I'll start. Peak radiation levels in the reactor
building for starters.
