That 'damage radius' could be extended to say a couple of thousand

Now, when that's Sahara sand or volcanic ash or even frogs, the
chances are few are doing to suffer much from it. If it's (say)
radioactive, a few hundred farmers may not be allowed to sell a few
thousand sheep or worse.

Except that such precautions are, in fact, unlikely to be necessary. They are
only taken because the relevant government (made up from people without proper
training in things like risk assessment) feel they have to be seen be "doing
something", and feel pressured by the media and egged on by twerps like you,
who lack judgement.

Ah! Todays sig looks to be made specially for you.
