For some reason the Inquirer article doesn't mention that the Limerick
nuclear plant is in Montgomery County PA not far from the affected farms.
It also doesn't mention that a lot of the farmers in the county were using
Philadelphia sludge on their fields in the late 70's and 80's before Phila
managed to rid its sludge of most of its heavy metal content.
