Nuke York City

Homeland Security is going to post "nuke detectors" in a ring around New York City and in key city center locations, hoping to detect dirty radiation bombs before they can be detonated. Still, it seems that just about anybody with a dirty bomb and access to a small boat could set something off within a hundred feet of the world's financial center downtown, effectively destroying a large part of the global economy. I suppose the detectors are "good news", as at the Xmas tree lighting ceremony at Rockefeller Center, mobile nuke sensors even picked up on folks who'd had radiation treatment that day. But I don't feel very good knowing about them. Damn.
