    Eating fish contaminated by Fukushima is probably ok

    Reading the comments in the Forbes article - you could be the columnist. He's has winners like 'I'll eat locally caught Tuna' - this despite the fact that he knows or should know that fishing is banned in the area precisely because of the radiation hazard (see the fish where a small 200g is at...

    Eating fish contaminated by Fukushima is probably ok

    Just my eating habits. Under Japan's new State Secret law they no longer need to release any information about Fukushima water discharges. I certainly hope you and Araysar pay no attention to the man behind the curtain and keep on eating Pacific fish.

    Eating fish contaminated by Fukushima is probably ok

    The Canadians disagree with the Japanese as to the amount of Cesium in Japanese fish. I'd probably give more weight to the Forbes article if it didn't depend on a paper that simply calculated Cesium for PBFT instead of actually - you know - sampling PBFT. Here's the paper the Forbes...

    Context? I'm talking about fish. Do you even understand how things like Mercury and Cesium get concentrated in fish? I'm guessing no with the 64 million square miles comment. You are the kind of stupid that doesn't get that he's stupid.

    Eating fish contaminated by Fukushima is probably ok

    If you say so buddy. But hey, what do I know? I mean as of December 6, 2013 the plant was still emitting 25 sieverts of radiation an hour which will kill you in 30 days. You are probably right that that a NYTimes article about fucking Chernoybl which wasn't a tenth as bad as Fukushima is...

    Eating fish contaminated by Fukushima is probably ok

    Cesium-137 has a half-life of 30 years. So that number is only going up. But please, eat as much Pacific Fish as you can - particularly Tuna or Swordfish.

    On reflection, I'm almost more interested in what Brad is not going to do - so I'd like to see some "We are not" answers. In particular something along the lines of: we are not going to try and build three continents half full of content ;-)

    I'm more concerned about Brad saying too much - particularly early when the design document has all these great ideas that will take more time and money than NewCo will have.

    He's probably passed out. He's on East Coast time. @Abe I'd probably shell out $250 for an FnF Alpha given three year development time and the possibility NewCo might run out of money. Even if it collapses I'd still get maybe a year of play.

    AFAICT, it's a lore guy, a pr guy, an art guy and two designers, one of whom (McQuaid) can code but isn't know for his coding. I don't have a problem with two designers at this point considering that the current main task will be the design document (note to Brad: A signed copy of the design...
