IS that Iridium-172 in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?

FedEx is now in the hotseat regarding a package they shipped from Paris to New Orleans last week. The box was so radioactively "hot" that the receiver of the package has yet to be able to measure it directly! FedEx has tried to downplay the situation by pointing out that both the sender and receiver were well-known clients that regularly sent radioactive materials (WELL!!! Isn't that special...if I was a terrorist, I'd definitely ship my nukes through that company!).

The problem is that the package was not measured for leaking radioactivity in the trip between Paris and New Orleans.

Six months ago that wouldn’t be a big deal. Today it is.

Wait a minute...Paris? New Orleans? Hey!!! If both parties were French, then there's no problem. Hell, ship it on to Quebec!
 
I guess that is one shipment where the anthrax threat is zero.
