What part of scientific information has to do with governmental information control?
"The Japanese are being sneaky about its cover-ups, so we aren't really sure how much radiation we detected, nor do we know how harmful cesium-137 and iodine-121 are, and how. But it's better to be safe than sorry so you should think they are!"
Sorry, I can't care less about a government's cover-ups at this time, because why now of all the time? That's what they do for a living, they hide pomegranate. I care about what they DID detect, how much of it, how exactly harmful it REALISTICALLY is. But again, I can't ask for too much.
