Oh, Good Lord...

Gummint and those KIO3 pills.  Hurry!  Buy all the Potassium Iodide pills.  The Administration thinks you should.  Maybe.  Panic a little too.

Money quote for Californians from their Emergency Management Agency:

"Even if we had a radiation release from Diablo Canyon (in San Luis Obispo County), iodide would only be issued to people living within a 10-mile radius of the plant," said Kelly Huston.

So the Feds say run around screaming hysterically, the State says to mellow out, man!

Looks like time to fire the Surgeon General and zero out the position in the budget for all time.

The ray of sunshine here is that in a few months, after the panic, KIO3 oughtta be in surplus, thereby helping those of us who haven't gotten around to stocking any...
