One doesnot need to detonate the Uranium/Plutonium one can poison the watersuplies and make havoc with The Simple Bear Necessities of life.

Well, I wouldn't want to snort the stuff daily, but its toxicity has been overrated in the popular press. Epidemiologic studies of workers [even wartime workers with impressive body burdens/ exposures] in a number of uranium bomb-making centers have found ~ no health effects. I haven't heard much about Pu-workers. Groeten, bdolan@well.sf.ca.us
