UC Berkley: Japan Nuclear Fallout Radiation Detected In California

As “downwinders” South Central and Eastern Oregon – where I grew up drinking surface water and fresh milk and eating gardened veggies and wild game – along with Southern and Eastern Idaho, Western Montana and Southern Alberta were subjected to some of the highest post Hiroshima Nagasaki pre Chernobyl concentrations of radioactive fallout in the world. I was born with an extra thumb. Didn’t give much thought to it until I met another born within days with an extra thumb. Or till I went to work at a law firm and was assigned as one my very first Internet research projects (1995) the correlation of the hundred or so open air “atomic” tests from 1953 – 1961 and the unusually high incidence of thyroid cancer in South Central and Eastern Oregon, Southern and Eastern Idaho, Western Montana and Southern Alberta – now a big CDC class action suit.

We’re no strangers to radioactive fallout ’round here. Or government lying.
