Political Factoid
Republican Senator Lamar Alexander
compared the radiation leaks in Japan
(155.7 millirem-per-hour) with the
average U.S. radiation exposure
of 300 millirem-per-year) from the sun,
implying that 155 from nuclear power
was less than the 300 natural exposure.
Too bad he does not know the difference
between an hour and a year, but then again,
he is a politician with strong ties to a nuclear
power plant manufacturer.
