First of all have you learned nothing from the movies? Nuclear fall-out, if
anything, should make the fruits abnormally large, and likely glow in the
dark.
Second, and slightly more serious, is anyone else frustrated by the sudden
expert stance of reporters on the nuclear power plants?

People are asking the wrong question. It is of course impossible to
