It’s time for you to check your constitution and get lawyers.

One thing about kids, if they have the curiosity, they will do a better job than an adult, and they’ll be honest about the work, too.
Their kids are probably through whom the solution to radioactive contamination will be given, if there’s time left for the world.
It would be neat if someone who is a multibillionairre would give a few kids in every American community a survey meter. Now that would be a radiation monitoring network.
And for Japan that goes without saying. It appears someone may be doing it in Japan. Hard to believe the government or Tepco would be. Probably is some teachers and/or parents. Maybe they have other benefactors.

This is not a job for children!
The adults must have had their brains washed reading too many cartoon comics when they were younger?
