Re: Feedback - Radioactive-waste bunkers `unsafe'

["Richard L. Hess" <lists@richardhess.com>]

Hi, J.J.,


I'll pick on just one. What is the level of radioactivity and the

exposure levels (immediate and long term) in the case of the San Diego

dumps?


I wouldn't live near a dump for many reasons--rotting melon rinds don't

smell too good, for example.


So the inverse square law is ignored? Once again there was no information

provided to help people assess the information.


I'm SO TIRED of TV News. It's about exciting the public, I fear...and

ratings.


Cheers?


Richard

Low-Level Radioactive Waste Dumped In Local Landfills
State Claims Radioactive Material Is Safe
 
SAN DIEGO -- Low-level radioactive material is being dumped in San Diego landfills, and some of it may be in your home, 10News has reported.

Most Californians believe that any radioactivity is dangerous, but the state of California apparently has other ideas.
