Fukushima: Don't eat those veggies and fruits!

I never finished a blog post on the second anniversary of the Fukushima meltdown, mostly because there was just too much data for me to pore through and write a full exposition on why people who minimize the effects are lying to themselves.  It came down to the false belief that measured radiation was much lower than expected.  Why was it false?  Because it is impossible to track and find all of the contamination that is above safe levels, and if Greenpeace could find a handful of excessively radioactive sites, there were probably thousands more out there, spread all about.

Today, there is confirmation of this basic truth.  I give you mutant life (see here for more).
