Nuclear Testing Fallout

Wow, I just read an interesting submission to Slashdot today Here, about the fallout patterns from the nuke tests (both above and below ground). Look like the state of Delaware (I was born there) was covered several times with the stuff from multiple tests.

I wonder if that explains why my grandfather (paternal) had skin cancer, my grandmother (also paternal) had thyroid cancer as did my father, and why recently my uncle passed away from pancreatic cancer?

I know it's a long shot, but it wouldn't surprise me.

Update:  Here's the pic.  Had to get it from the Wayback Machine.
