Re: Radiation poisoning feared from Iraq looting

["Boomologist" <boomologist@gothotrocks.com>]

This same news item aired here in Spokane, Washington two days ago. There

was one thing different, the reported stated that they expect to see signs

of cancer in some of the locals within 2-3 weeks. I assume this was a

mistake on the reporters part but when he stated this they showed a sign in

the background that said "Uranium". This again tells the public that even

Uranium is a monster and will get you in a few weeks.

   Just how much activity could one expect from Yellow Cake? Would it cause

radiation sickness in such a short time?

                       Thanks,
