my usual question: When is the NRC going to start taking radiography
seriously?

I actually do think they take it seriously. If you want to get irate over some serious accidents, not just simple violations, then look to the x-ray overexposure and misadministration events, because that's where you will generally find actual life and health threatening events. Although, because we do not have a federal program, like the NRC, tracking and trending these events, they may be hard to identify.
