We have. Some of my colleagues have dedicated much research time into the deleterious effects of U-238. A man by the name of Dr. Gunther authored a book in 1996 on the matter as well. I worked with one of the groups that collaborated with him on that project. I don't believe it's available in the US though. Surprise, surprise.
It's a terrible thing really. Leaving nuclear waste in and around civilian areas is unethical IMO. I don't believe I'd find anyone who works in my field that would disagree.
If you understand the molecular genesis of cancer, you understand why effective treatments are slow in coming. Most of my research is aimed at unlocking the molecular events which initiate neoplastic transformations. Look here:
You can pop into the UTHSCSA library and read a few pages. Don't take my word for it, start learning. Beware though, I did help with the editing of a few of the chapters in this text.

Most students find it to be a good read.
If you're really serious, I'll sit down with you personally and explain the finer points. I have patents who grill me on a daily basis, and they should leave no stone unturned.
But why post pictures that show those U-238 after effects in between dialogue pertaining to the Japanese situation? That's my beef.
Thanks doing so now.

Educate away, I'm done boring the masses for now. I'll lurk until someone asks a question. It's your show.......
Do also let us know when you get done reading the introductory textbook that was given to you on the subject as well.
Classic mouse.![]()
There are still thousands of dead bodies laying around, but none from radiation.
You didn't answer the question.
Are there tsunami currently occurring in Japan?
No. Do all the tsunami-related problems go away when the tsunami is over?
Not as much as they get they dwarfed by the lingering prospect of a nuclear disaster with global implications.
The death toll by sea water and debris may reach 100K, but go ahead and worry about your milk.![]()
Finally. No reason to be such a pussy.The nuclear power plant problems are tsunami-related.Do all the tsunami-related problems go away when the tsunami is over?
Way to kick your own ass.![]()
100k > 0
You already explained why the tsunami related nuclear problems are news.
Thanks.
So everything is a body count to you?
I guess in the warped world you live in DWI is much worst than child molestation since one kills more people than the other?
If your so y about about what is less damaging... then, here's a challenge, meet me in person and I will bring a pint of west coast Milk you to drink it and in return I will swim in the ocean to see who dies first.
deal, or no deal?

Levels that are 5000x below levels of concern set by the FDA, including levels set for infants and children?
I smoke, work in the sun from time to time, and eat bananas. Color me unafraid.
Maybe you and chump can spoon together for comfort.
Nah, it's just evidence that someone is washed up and has no creativity. At least your shtick is half-assed amusing.
A SANE take by the Australians.
FDA? the same people who allowed Jack N The box to use tainted meat? or the FDA that allowed growth hormones in milk?
I rather you support the CIA.
No kidding. I agree.
My understanding is that U238, like many other particulate debris, is most harmful in a very fine dust when inhaled. U238 has the unique added problem in that it is relatively slightly radioactive, compared to other radioactive materials. The dust can stay in the lungs without being scrubbed out with a cyanide based heavy metal cleanser.
Now am I right that the dust of it is more harmful than the radioactivity? There would definitely be radioactivity limits as well, but when a DU round does it job on armor... there is metallic dust in the air everywhere, till it settles.
I forget the confirmed deaths and missing, but remember the total is about 28,000 between the two.
