Walmart recalls shrimp after FDA warns of radioactive isotopes


There's a local restaurant called Killer Shrimp that specializes in what I’d call hot shrimp but I’m pretty sure they just use a spicy sauce and skip the cesium-137!

I got excited for a moment there. I thought, "If I eat that shrimp, I could become a mobile atomic clock!" But alas, the clock uses cesium-133, not 137.

Gene Weingarten, writing in the Washington Post about online news stories and the accompanying readers' comments: "I basically like 'comments,' though they can seem a little jarring: spit-flecked rants that are appended to a product that at least tries for a measure of objectivity and dignity. It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

 

No amount of belief makes something a fact.  -James Randi, magician and skeptic
