Radioactive Iodine, How did it get into the milk in japan and how did it do it so fast. My dad says it evaporated with the water vapor and got spread that way but this seems wrong to me. I tweet, I ask ask, I hear fox, I post here, no one can give me a accurate scientific portrait that shows Iodine, Boiling Point: 184.0 °C (457.15 K, 363.2 °F) gets from inside a contained reactor into the milk miles and miles away.

@Butrflynet,
That's exactly what I'm talking about. That's great but how does the "dust" go from inside a Sealed reactor to miles and miles away up hill and upwind when most of this stuff is supposedly going out to sea. It still doesn't answer my question. Radioactivity inside a sealed reactor turns into dust and flies away? What is this some kind of children story?
