U.S. military detects more radiation
U.S. officials have told NBC News that they're seeing a disparity between Japanese radiation readings and the readings they've been getting from military monitors.

Concerns about the release of radiation from Japan's stricken nuclear plants at the Fukushima Dai-ichi complex began with data collection on the aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan. On Monday, the U.S. Seventh Fleet relocated its ships and aircraft out of the downwind direction after crew members returning to the carrier were found to have picked up low levels of radioactive contamination. The personnel were scrubbed down with soap and water, then declared contamination-free.

Since then, the data on radiation releases suggest a range of outcomes, going all the way up to "dire," the officials said. They spoke with NBC on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the findings publicly.


Officials said several agencies are analyzing the data, including the Department of Energy's Nuclear National Security Administration and the CIA.

1. I already explained that.
They tried to take my beer and travel money.

And they will not succeed at that, anything else said or done is not relevant, I am due beer and travel money, and someone will send that.

And the world should be more just and compassionate.



Just look at the simplest of examples. Solar and wind power, a better obvious choice, electric cars, obvious. Yet for a few people that wanted control by being able to jack travel expenses, or create hardship, such use of non central power generation was scrapped in the 1980s.

They literally took the electric cars off the road, and stopped the moving to solar power.

Why?

Because they want to control you, and need levers like fear of lack of employment, fear of lack of health care, and fear of not affording energy.
