Post made after SciAm article about Fukushima Meltdown

This was a raply to a post made following Scientific American article entitled:
Fukushima Meltdown Mitigation Aims to Prevent Radioactive Flood

scientific earthling: Your sincere and ardent pursuit of the truth is laudable and nourishing to us all. That said, I believe you are overestimating the lethality and toxicity of U-235. From my understanding, the fact that the decay rate of U-235 is so very drawn out is a GOOD thing, because this means it emits its radiation VERY slowly over glacial periods of time. U-235 is a bit less than one percent of the Earth's crust. Thus, U-235 has been in our midst in large quantities, always. Nothing new.
