And in fact a coal power statins load of fly ash - used in the UKs past 
to make building blocks out of - would be classed as low level waste if 
it came from a nuclear plant

Quite a lot of uranium and therefore radon and friends in coal

The Fukushima clean up aims to get below 20nGy/hr

It would be impossible to achieve in the USA.

survival, to indulging in navel gazing and faux moral investigations 
into what the world ought to be, whilst we fail utterly to deal with 
what it actually is.
