Very, very low levels. Nothing dangerous, but these are the effects of what has happened in Japan.

Low levels of radiation found in West Coast milk

WASHINGTON (AP) — Low levels of radiation have turned up in milk samples from two West Coast states. Officials say there is no public health threat.

Traces of radioactive Iodine-131 were found in milk in California and Washington state, according to federal and state authorities who are monitoring for contamination as the nuclear crisis unfolds in Japan.

The officials say the levels are still 5,000 times below levels of concern.

I remember a week ago when they said radiation was a billion times below levels of concern.

I don't like the trend.

Meters in Europe are detecting radiation from Japan too. That is after it crossed the Pacific Ocean, then North America, then the Atlantic Ocean too! :laugh2:
