Aha. Well, the last time I read an estimation of a dirty bomb going off in a metropole like Manhatten, the casualty numbers ranged from 80,000 to 300,000 in i think six or twelve months. Of course after two years the number is even higher.

So much for your conservative estimation.

you may not understand it but I stick with describing a plane-load of cerosine going off and a building collapsing as the smaller event compared to a radiating reactor cracking open and surrounding heat and fire producing radioactive dust spreading over blocks and blocks of a city. Your imagination may be different, but fantasy is free.

Pewh, I cant believe that I am even discussing this.
