I just returned from a trip to Australia and  New  Zealand  where
irradiated  milk  is  commonplace.  Believe me, it makes you look
twice when you see cartons of milk on the shelf with  the  bread.
The  quality  of  the  irradiated milk is far superior to that of
"fresh" when the fresh must come from over a thousand miles  away
and  the  time  required  by  the  transportation system and sub-
tropical climate are degrading the milk.

It was great getting a suntan and reading about the Siberian Deep
Freeze.
