My comment regarding Cs-137 was to the idea that they

are looking a Ca-45 in baby teeth.  Obviously this

plays into the concerns people have about childhood

cancers.  However, it you examine the distribution of

Cs-137, which is also a long-lived component of

fallout and nuclear reactions. It is ubiquitous.  It

is found in deer meat, in the soil, etc., in trace

amounts just like Sr-90.  



Of course, environmental sampling does not have the

emotional impact of baby teeth.
