Topic: radiated parts from Japan, just saying

[40mikemike]

I just put the same thing up over @ mud forums, anyhow just food for thought/concern...
 the reactor owners don't seem to be the most "honorable businessmen"  over there, some resigned over safety/corruption charges...just saying like Katrina folks selling cars, only add radiation, the ebay stuff kinda scares me a lil...
maybe a big 10lb brain will post up the 1/2 life of damaged reactor release...

"Seems like someone would of brought this up sooner, but any how, just food for thought from a newb/long time lurker...
don't know what the 1/2life is but i've heard one of the prius factories is in the 12 mile ring...probably getting awesome CCA's outta those batts now..."

I actually have one of those geiger counters, that exact model...

the "calibration" is total bull crap. Those meters read in Rads/Min  which is HUGE compared to what is possibly contained within that package.

Its a victoreen CDV-715 by the looks of it and they only read very high levels of radiation, I would be extremely suspect of that video. Especially since he is trying to sell a service...

the .gov page you linked to is a no brainer, of course our gov would release a warning like that!

Radiated engine parts run better.  I should have never went Chevy, since Toyota now offers Irradiated components.  Is there a Nuclear plant near Bay City, Michigan?

Kinda makes you re-think the whole global market place thing a little, think about some of the Ebay stuff that will slip by the Obese inept postal worker/Customs dude, well at least it's relatively traceable.  It would be cool to have a mildly reactive plastic Gozilla though!
Does anybody know if any of the toyota/honda/nissan/fuji heavy plants were aroun the 10 mile exclusion zone, can't find anything just hear a quick blurb about the prius factory being in the zone, ....well now maybe chevy volt sales will increase...
