Yesterday, we went up to The West End to buy some Kurt Geiger shoes for Caroline's birthday at the end of the month. We got 2 pairs and I have a super secret present too. I've bought the wrapping. Everything is sorted out and ahead of schedule.
beep beep beep beep. Geiger counters make annoying sounds but they are quite useful.
0.39 Microsieverts per hour, people are exposed to 1.3 on a transatlantic flight so this is not a high number. Between 5000 and 20,000 rotegens (100x microsiverts) surrounded the area after the explosion. 500 rotegens over 5 hours is a lethal dose - those working in the area stood no chance.
Due to the only geiger counter that could read above 3 rotegens being damaged in the explosion workers had no idea of the true radiation levels for a few days.
During the Revolutionary War Emily Geiger rode sidesaddle to deliver a vital message from General Nathaniel Greene to Sumter, SC. Her memorial plaques hangs in the South Carolina State House.
The Soeks Defender Geiger counter measures the background radiation around the house at 0.22-0.27 µSv/h. When I place it on top of the Germany granite kitchen countertop it spikes up to 0.44 µSv/h and warns of “high background radiation.”
Granite has Uranium-235.
