I'm calling bullshit on this article. Despite misdeeds, wrongdoings, corruption and outright lies by TEPCO and IAEA this article poo-poos the long-term impact of this international disaster.
"No matter what happens in Fukushima, it's not going to be a problem over here." -- Eric Norman
NO MATTER WHAT?? That's a pretty big statement. Especially since that, when radiation levels were detected to increase, the EPA just raised the minimum level of harmful radiation to a higher level. See?? Not a problem anymore.

The snopes article is a form of deceptive propaganda and is all-around bullshit.
