Flash memory toasted by U.S. Postal Service?

http://www.memorexlive.com/photo/faqs_memory_cards.pdf

"Keep flash cards away from electrostatic sources and magnetic fields. This
caution has grown to include sending them through the U.S. Postal Service in
the type of packaging that is unlikely to undergo electron beam irradiation
that will damage semiconductors."

Anyone knows more about this issue?

What packageing to use?, Other type of electronics affected?
Will the use of fedex or similar avoid the issue?
