There's also a layer of strontium all over the bottom of the river running through Manhattan. It's found in gypsum based building materials, so a whole load of found it's way into the air when the WTC was destroyed. But in this case I'm pretty sure it ain't strontium 90.

Well a few miles north of me, the RAF managed to drop a nuke a few years back whilst trying to load it on to a bomber... Good job they make them tough.

Y'know, the way i see it, if you live or work in london and terrorists do explode a radiological device in Trafalga Square, all you really have to do is give up smoking and the two risks will balance themeselves out.

Is there any chance someone can produce a map like this but identifying the best locations for particular types of mutations, Zone 4=Toast, Zone 3=Toast or seathrough skin, Zone 2=Weird Strontium extra limbs or, if you're lucky the odd superpower, Zone 1=good chance of being bitten by radioactive leapord (if there's a zoo nearby).
