Re:	Cosmos A-Bomb

Whether radioactive substances can be used by terrorists actually has very
little to do with how easy such substances are to disperse and so forth.
A great many people in this country (and probably elsewhere) are sufficiently
disturbed by the "radioactive" label that that alone would be sufficient for
widespread panic, which is of course what the terrorist is aiming at anyway...
