[ RadSafe ] Two Japanese Towns are Uninhabitable

[Harrison, Tony]

I would guess it's a translation issue, or just confusion based on measurements made one meter above ground.  Here's another version of the same story that seems a little less garbled:

One thing that seems a bit odd to me is the claim that radiation in
air can not be reduced - Please, read and comment on this article; I
have a feeling that something very important has been left unsaid.

Thanks.
