Perhaps if you linked to the AS&E home page instead of to a Christian Science site which doesn't know the difference between radiating and irradiating,

Just to clarify, you are aware the Christian Science Monitor is a very well-respected publication, and not some wing-nutty "Christian Science site", right? This should be common knowledge to anyone who reads the news.
i certainly am no expert on radiation, and cant comment on the substance of the OP, but the article seems quite legit and to reject the info in it out-of-hand because of what would appear to be a knee-jerk reaction against the word "Christian" seems not very ignorance denying.
and considering the article even links to a local Atlanta news story that SHOWS these trucks being used, it seems odd to claim this is a 'hoax'.

LOL. How ANYONE could not know that the Christian Science Monitor is a GREAT publication is beyond me.
You took exception with the OP's own spin, and assumed it came from the article, without actually reading it. THEN, you attacked me for pointing this out.\You sure ATS is the site for you?

so, when you mocked the very well-known publication "Christina Science Monitor" as a "Christian Science site' you werent being derisive?
The article isnt a hoax, as you so aggressively claimed. You could be a big boy and apologize to the OP, or you could keep digging the hole youve made. It's of no consequence to me.

Perhaps if you linked to the AS&E home page instead of to a Christian Science site which doesn't know the difference between radiating and irradiating, and cut out the silly reference to microwaves, people might take your OP more seriously.

As an antiterror measure, the US government has deployed mobile X-ray technology to randomly scan cars and trucks. But the measure is riling privacy proponents.
and
For many living in a terror-spooked country, it might seem like a great government innovation: Use vans equipped with mobile X-ray units to scan vehicles at major sporting events, or even randomly, for bombs or contraband.
This is absolutely and completely ridiculous in every way! I am not ok with being "microwaved" in the name of safety from terrorists! That stuff doesn't fly! You have a better shot of being hit by lightning than ever running across a terrorist. Where are all the anti-lightning measures?
Of course we know they don't exist because this technology has nothing to do with terrorists and everything to do with the government spying on the supposed free citizens of this country. What a joke.
I think it's passed time for us to do something about this. Whatever we have to actually. I wish we had the protests they have had recently in Europe here over this kind of garbage.
Anyway, that's my opinion. I wanted evryone else here to see this and to go ahead and voice their own opinion as well. But the main thing for me, is to make others aware of what's happening since you won't likely see this on the evening news.
