What is the worry, that we will stop buying food and milk? Has Obama blacked out EPA results?

BC - It's your old friend DR. I have come to the same conclusion. I've been more than willing to give some of the theories and disputes presented here a little more credit than they deserve but I have to say...these days the only contributors providing solid indisputable facts are the members of BRAWM, yourself and a few others...and those facts seem to indicate that any increased levels are truly insignificant. The fuel fleas/hot particles issues has not been fully resolved but it certainly seems like these are not of a valid concern, because (correct me if I'm wrong here) the body's natural defense is built to combat radioactive particles at levels far higher than we've seen here. My grandfather was a uranium miner in Ouray Colorado decades back. He died of a pretty painful lung cancer. I have no doubt his smoking contributed to his untimely end but I wonder if any studies were done on miners such as himself. I was just speaking to my father and he informed me that my grandmother settled a law suit with the mining company some ten or twenty years back. I wonder if the baby I have on the way is affected in any way, on a genetic level, by my grandfathers exposure. This story might seem off-topic but it certainly made me think about past and present exposure to man-made fission product. Providing a little perspective, if you will. I wonder how previous exposure on your part may affect little future BC's.

I do wonder sometimes whether I may be acting a bit irrational too but all our produce comes from California and the fact that we do not have information coming in from EPA is fueling my concerns. It is driving me crazy! I just wish they would post something to show the trends. I will continue to modify for my kids but after this harvest season the stuff will be on the shelves for a couple of years in tomato sauce, fruit products, etc. And t that point there is not much choice left. It's just sad.
