RE: NJ Gets Seaport Radiation Detector
There was an incident about a year ago when a ship
form Italy(?) was searched because radiation detectors
showed higher than normal levels of activity. It was
determined the activity was due to ceramic tiles that
were made for naturally radioactive clays.
Get used to this kind of response.
