Reuters: Fukushima radiation seen in tuna off California
Fukushima radiation seen in tuna off California 
By Deborah Zabarenko
WASHINGTON | Mon May 28, 2012 3:16pm EDT
(Reuters) - Low levels of nuclear radiation from the tsunami-damaged Fukushima power plant have turned up in bluefin tuna off the California coast, suggesting that these fish carried radioactive compounds across the Pacific Ocean faster than wind or water can.
Small amounts of cesium-137 and cesium-134 were detected in 15 tuna caught near San Diego in August 2011, about four months after these chemicals were released into the water off Japan's east coast, scientists reported on Monday.
That is months earlier than wind and water currents brought debris from the plant to waters off Alaska and the U.S. Pacific Northwest.
The amount of radioactive cesium in the fish is not thought to be damaging to people if consumed, the researchers said in a study published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

1. What?
I heard the problem of Fukushima was just "local".
You mean they are big fat liars? Telling lies while cheerleading for nukes?
Are there people like that, still? How do they get away with those lies?
Try reading the artical, DUmbass.
Bags, rings the start bell.

4. Do you still have all your fingers?
Tue May 29, 2012, 02:34 PM USA/ET -
You'll only need one of them to count the activity from cesium (one becquerel) of a four ounce serving of this salmon.
By comparison, you would need the fingers and toes of your 500 closest friends to represent the becquerel count in your own body right now.
So no, "they" weren't lying. Anyone who told you that you had anything to worry about from Fukushima was the one who lied to you.
BobbyE isn't happy, and answers the door.

5. Really? Yes, really
Nothing to worry about from Fukushima?
Is that what you are saying? Try to answer the question: Yes, or No.
Bags slaps him gently, then BobbyE just HAS to get smart mouthed.

10. As long as I stay here?
And don't eat tuna. And don't listen to the experts who are saying that "it ain't over yet, there could be more to come" and just listen to you, someone who has been wrong so many times already, then yeah.
Why should i listen to you? Are you an expert?
You do know that Fukushima is not just a local thing, right? That radioactive materials made it to NC already, which means it made it all over the world, right?
Bags plants his foot in BobbyE's ass.

11. No... as long as you don't move to Fukushima and enter the reactors without gear.
And don't listen to the experts who are saying that "it ain't over yet, there could be more to come"
Such a statement pretty much removes the possibility that the speaker is an "expert".
You do know that Fukushima is not just a local thing, right? That radioactive materials made it to NC already, which means it made it all over the world, right?
Your statements don't add up to a logical whole. As you've been told clearly multiple times, the amount of radiation really does matter. I know you're plugging your ears/eyes/mouth and pretending that "natural" radiation is safe while "manmade" radiation in any amount is dangerous... that simply isn't true. You'vr also been told that the amount we can detect is many MANY times lower than the amount that becomes relevant. Yes, some radiation has traveled around the world... but that doesn't change the fact that Fukushima is very much a "local" thing (from a radiation impact on health standpoint).
Why should i listen to you?
Because you've given in to irrational fears with no basis in reality and it makes you look pretty silly (in precisely the same way that chemtrail/tinfoil/etc types do).
BoobyE pretty much shut his mouth after this, and was a bit more careful.
One more "chicken Little" did show up, and Bags popped him, too.

6. You've been lied to. The Japanese government recently admitted as much.

9. Can you link to this admission? No, he can't 
I assure you... anyone who tells you that there is any reason to be concerned about 10 Bq/kg in salmon is the one who is lying to you.
MM did make a show at the end. Didn't get stupid, either.
