Depends on how strong the emissions are. If it's enough to be harmful, it should ionise. Generally, geiger counters are not very accurate for gamma radiation though since gamma doesn't ionise air. Scintillators are much better for detecting gamma radiation.

Haven't seen it yet, but one of the sections that interests me is where they see if bribing kids will make them study harder in school... looks like a decent enough set of documentaries, or at least entertaining ones anyway haha (trailer is on youtube)

It's not exactly surprising in terms of time. The levels will gradually decrease as they get closer to the end due to the methods being employed so it can only get better from what we have now (although people will still moan about build ups too low to harm anyone)

I would hope there is some kind of dna/fingerprint check on her clothes... if not then it is insane because anyone can fire off this kind of accusation!

I would imagine that it is the same reason the French banned British beef for so long - fear of public outcry.

Badsey - the generators are insanely specialised things and are not items just lying around! They are not your run-of-the-mill generators!
The fact is that rumours and half-truths are, and have already been, spread by articles like this... I liked Smorkian's comment of "armchair nuclear experts" comment and nobody is really helped by the kind of thing!

Whilst I'm not always the biggest fan of American 'operations', I have nothing but respect for the effort they are putting in here when people need them. Any Americans here should be proud of your boys and girls!
