I thought this was interesting. On The History Channel there was a show about the crew of the Enola Gay - dropped first atomic bomb on Japan. In the diary of one crewman he comments that as they were hit by the blast wave, another crewman commented that "you can taste fission". "It tastes like lead".
Does this make sense to anyone? Does gamma radiation or any of the trash from a fission reaction induce a sense of taste?
