Geiger Counter Reading for Tokyo on Wednesday, March 23rd, 2011

[DAANTAELON]

human overpopulation = nuclear plants, overproduction, forests devastation, pollution = cancer rate 44% and increasing

that is the least you need to know

What are the critical radiation levels as far as measuring units go?

[MasonMsotsos]

@DanielDaniel1 "An exposure of 500 roentgens in five hours is usually lethal for human beings."

And they're talking about micro-roentgens on here... so a lot.

@RusconiDom No worries. Be safe. Peace.

[bryan3184]

@RusconiDom All I am referring to is for you to please stop being a bad troll. My point was made. Your being a common douchebag now and making points and saying shit that does nothing to do with my VALID point. You can stand down now, it's ok.

[bryan3184]

@RusconiDom Sometimes, when things happen, people do things that don't make sense because they have a false sense of security when they do it. Wake the fuck up. I know wtf a surgical mask is for. I never claimed to know anything except what my eyes see in the video. Wow your a shitty troll. What I know is that its a video about how radiation is safe and I see a man in the back with a surgical mask on. How this escapes your common sense I don't presume to care. Please shut the fuck up.

If the radiation is in the rain water, washing food grown outside that has been watered by that rain is not going to help because the plant will take the radiation in when it takes in the water. I suppose if the plant growing your food has survived with no water since before the 11th, food picked immediately after the rain might be ok after rinsing, but I don't think many food plants would have survived that long without rain or watering.

@RusconiDom Your right, i'm sure the iodide-131 in the air isn't harmful. He probably is just wearing it because it looks awesome. The timing must just be a coincidence.

@kfoo1234 I just realised I said 0.3 micro-roentgens/h not micro-sieverts. You are correct in pointing out my mistake.

[MrHeiwa07]

Thank you for posting this. Please keep us updated.

[kfoo1234]

You G-counter is showing microsieverts per hour, NOT milli Rontgens per hour.

If your counter is working, at 0.29 μSv/Hr, is quite normal.

[springyard]

@kfoo1234 The Geiger counter is showing micro-Sv/h. The scintillator (smaller device I put on the plant) is in micro-R/h.

[bryan3184]

You should tell the guy sitting on the bench in the background with a surgical mas on, the same thing your telling us. I think he needs to be reassured.

Like my dramatic turn to the camera at the start?
