Re: Purification - Japanese Style! (4.00 / 4)
A 70% reduction is not adequate, IMO. It is (just) better than doing nothing.

I beg to disagree... A 75% reduction would be equivalent to two half-lives of radioactive decay, and in the case of Cs137 with its 30-year halflife that's eliminating the first (and most intense) 60 years of the contamination.

Economics is politics by other means
