Hey Everyone,
I don't want to be a fear monger but here goes: my GF just mentioned that she heard talk of high radiation levels occurring in our waters from the Japan crisis, and that I should consider reducing my fish intake. I looked online and didn't find much recent information. Does anyone else know anything about this? I've been eating quite a lot of local rockfish and lingcod lately.
Thanks,
Andrew
May the fish be mighty and the seas be meek...

There was a report awhile back from the Feds that the level of radiation coming from Japan would dissipate over the ocean and would have minimal/ No affects on the U.S.  To put things in perspective, you probably get more radiation everyday from your cell phone, microwave, Tv, and other things. I would worry too much about it.
