Yet another humorous article... So far they have apparently found 2 whole radioactive particles! That has got to be the cleanest beach in the history of the universe...

English use `nuclear scare' beach
Source: The Independent - London
ENGLISH TOURISTS are unwittingly using a Scottish beach, close to the
Dounreay nuclear plant, where a second radioactive particle has been found a
fortnight after a previous scare, according to Scotland Against Nuclear
Dumping. Most Scots know to avoid Sandside beach in Caithness, but
tourists continue to visit it.
