2. These amounts of radiation are harmless. I don't see why it's regulated at all.
What a bother.

Nothing to see here. Move along.....

7. " a shortage of personal dosimeters at the destroyed nuclear plant "
The latest news is that a shortage of personal dosimeters at the destroyed nuclear plant could mean that an accurate picture of how much radiation some workers are absorbing doesn’t exist.

latest Greenpeace news says this.
The deadly earthquake and tsunami that shattered the northeastern coastline also destroyed thousands of the nuclear power plant's supply of dosimeters, which each employee should carry to warn of excessive radiation.

This means workers were forced to share dosimeters while working, the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency said Thursday. Since dosimeter readings vary greatly by position, it is difficult for a single dosimeter to protect everyone in a group if one of them happens to wander away. How many workers were forced to share dosimeters was not immediately known.

8. Evacuate?



- One should not expect rational decisions to come forth from those who chose radioactive materials as their source of energy to begin with.......
