Radioactive cesium was found in milk powder in Japan made by a Meiji Holdings Co. unit, raising concern that nuclear radiation is contaminating baby food.

[...] “The dose is pretty small,” said Richard Wakeford, a visiting professor in epidemiology at the University of Manchester’s Dalton Nuclear Institute. It wouldn’t be necessary to ban the products from a radiological protection point of view, he said. “But you can understand the kind of pressure that the manufacturer would be under in these circumstances.”

Is it just me or are babies 'pretty small' as well? Seems like that's not the best argument to make. Not to mention, you know, that's potentially 100% of their diet so maybe that makes it a bit more worrying.

I've just rewatched some - ah, the instantly recognisable theme tune! the hideous clothes! and the really very good acting.

Does anyone have any recs for some good Pros fic?
