A rather interesting article on kitty litter and radiation.

I had a great joke about this, but it's rated G for Get the heck outta here......

Hmm, why switch to "organic" kitty litter in the first place for these purposes? The nuclear waste is already toxic enough, I don;t think they need special organic litter to make it more, rather than less dangerous!

It's funny, Dad always kept a bucket of Speedy Dry (now apparently called Oil-Dri) in the garage for oil spills when working on cars or trucks, and I always thought that looked like kitty litter!

Not to mention that the organic litter is much more expensive than plain old clay. What next, using Feline Pine (TM) to clean up spills from blown engines on the race track?:D

That may mask the smell of burning rubber and engine oil?:eek:

Just wondering if this place in NM is anywhere near Area 51. ;)

I used the Oil-Dri for kitty litter way back when. It was cheap and worked very well - and no chemicals in the stuff then.
