But no one "officially" will say how bad it is.

The WHOI folks, at least, are saying it ain't over. And they do seem to be bucking the trend that says "there is no need to research the matter".

Indeed they are saying there will be more radioactive seawater and that in the interests of science we need to be ready for it's coming.

In a sea of denial, I do find theirs to be a glowing response. <grin>
