Most of the article is about taking potassium iodide after any nuclear
incident. Of course there was a run on it after Fukashima. Now that
it's been several months I should check for it the next time I'm at the
supplement specialty store.

One thing of interest to me. I've been on low dosage generic synthroid
for decades. I wonder if iodine supplementation would allow me to taper
off and stop my dosage? I will try to remember to discuss that with my
doctor the next time I have an appointment. Given the choice between a
supplement and a perscription medication the answer is a slam dunk if
the supplement will actually do that. I have no idea if it will.
