It was reading very high in some places.
Bet these are alpha counts, or they wouldn't be standing there acting like it ain't no thing.
Hey Donger, you know how you could buy a 911 Turbo but you don't really need it because your GTI is just fine as far as you're concerned? Well, can I have the 911 Turbo? [Reply]

Yes.

Donger: Nothing to see here. Just a little radioactive water.
Reporting from Tokyo—
The operator of Japan's stricken Fukushima nuclear plant said Tuesday that it had found radioactive iodine at 7.5 million times the legal limit in a seawater sample taken near the facility, and government officials imposed a new health limit for radioactivity in fish.
The reading of iodine-131 was recorded Saturday, Tokyo Electric Power Co. said. Another sample taken Monday found the level to be 5 million times the legal limit. The Monday samples also were found to contain radioactive cesium at 1.1 million times the legal limit.
The exact source of the radiation was not immediately clear, though Tepco has said that highly contaminated water has been leaking from a pit near the No. 2 reactor. The utility initially believed that the leak was coming from a crack, but several attempts to seal the crack failed.
On Tuesday the company said the leak instead might be coming from a faulty joint where the pit meets a duct, allowing radioactive water to seep into a layer of gravel underneath. The utility said it would inject "liquid glass" into gravel in an effort to stop further leakage. [Reply]
Donger is like it or not completely accurate. And the 5,000,000 time amount was proven to be inaccurate. Also radioactive Iodine's half life is very short about 8.02 days and its basically gone. [Reply]

Yeah, the radioactive iodine is one thing... the radioactive Xenon 133 and the Caesium 137.... and the plutonium have an entirely different and much longer half-life.
But, you'd have to research and know where to look to find such information.
This shit isn't bad for Earth, AT ALL... no, I'm so glad that instead of doing anything about it, and giving us warnings or updated radiation levels around the globe, what the US Amurkan govt does, is instead RAISE the radiation exposure limits... heh.
