Interesting stuff I will have to check back on this Not to trash anyone but those who are now demonizing Nuclear Power after Fukushima would do well to educate themselves on the engineering and science behind Nuclear Power. You will never be taken seriously while randomly spouting Doom & Gloom that really isn’t applicable to the entire industry.

Unfortunately Solar isn’t ready for wide scale usage and Wind power is only supplemental at best. Nuclear Power isn’t going anywhere as its still the best bang for the buck and is very safe. That said building a reactor on or near a Fault Line could have serious consequences if not engineered correctly [unavoidable in Japan]

I am not very familiar with this device, but as a scientist, I’m keenly interested in your reporting. Could you explain the relative merit in using the Inspector (compared to other devices) since it appears to have seemingly poor accuracy (+- 15-20%)? Can this data be reported in peer-review literature or is this simply the best screening device available?

Finally, are you “masked” in some way to protect yourself when you take these (1500+) measurements?

There is nothing I get pleasure from more than visiting this blog site each and every life following work. Thanks for every one of the wonderful articles!!

Excellent video – from the continuing nuclear disaster.

Listen to a presentation by Arnie Gundersen at the Vancouver Conference “The Fukushima Nuclear Disaster – One Year Later”; plus Q and A with well-informed audience (presented by Physicians for Global Survival); plus two Japanese citizen activists from Fukushima – who set up measuring stations in Fukushima, and Tokyo, when the government wouldn’t.

Brothers and sisters for this site. Support the campaign to get the sophisticated detector!

@Robert M Stiles: Thank you for the reading. I am right next to Pismo, (Grover) and have wondered about the readings around here this last year. I am hoping to get an Inspector and start youtubing results and posting here if possible. These readings are very important. I use my woman’s intuition, but having a reading sure is reassuring! I also want to start measuring foods around here. In the meantime, please let us know if Pismo area has further high readings if you would…

Hello Michael et al: I almost beat your hepafilter video. On Jan 16 I measured 207 then 214 peaks from a fine mist at Pismo Beach 5 miles from Diablo Canyon. Dont know the source but nothing was mentioned in the MSM. The next day the reading was a benign 50+. It appears the worst of a rain event is in the early stages. It makes sense the rain washes down any clouds of radiation in the atmosphere below the moisture clouds.

The EPA aren’t doing anything in CA, maybe because they all moved the hell out? lol

Three more Fukushima-related whoppers with another by Sunday: The Endless Bummer: http://www.enviroreporter.com/2012/03/the-endless-bummer/ Sunny Southern California has been the bulls eye for Fukushima meltdowns fallout and radiation contamination with more Cesium-137 impacting L.A. more than anywhere else in the U.S. after the disaster began March 11, 2011. Now with levels of radiation hammering the West Coast with levels that dwarf Chernobyl's 1986 meltdown, the danger of Uranium-filled "buckyballs" threatens to irradiate the West Coast turning the seashore a silent unseen cesspool of radioactive goo. This abridged and updated version of Beta Watch, with new data, information and interviews was so shocking that even EnviroReporter's favorite print editors were dumbstruck by The Endless Bummer. An EnviroReporter.com exclusive. Rad News Digest: http://www.enviroreporter.com/2012/03/rad-news-digest/ Supplementing BakRad's superb news feed on every EnviroReporter.com page comes Rad News Digest which goes back to Day 1 of the Fukushima triple meltdowns and keeps us current going into Year 2 of this unprecedented disaster. Isotopic Identifier Fund: http://www.enviroreporter.com/isotopic-identifer-fund/ Now we want to kick it up several notches and purchase a Ludlum 711 with all the necessary equipment and software. We are asking for your help so we can further expand our reporting of the extent of increasing Fukushima contamination. The isotopic identifer is able to detect specific isotopes, nuclide identification, spectrum analysis, dose rate calculation (rem/hr or Sv/h), and total dose, all in a unit that measures these radionuclides immediately, storing the data for transfer to our computer and then to Radiation Station Santa Monica. There will be no need for costly and time-consuming third party analysis of the various media we have and will continue to test. Labs are too expensive to test numerous samples for radiation, costing $500 to $700 easily for a small suite of radionuclides per sample. That adds up very quickly. To be at the mercy of labs with varying quality assurance and quality control is not viable for a project like this. We have to be the lab. We have to be able to perform an unlimited number of detections and isotopic identification and quantification. We have to be able to do this anywhere, anytime and show the results in a clear and incontrovertible way. We have to prove everything and then report it. And we have to do it now as the American and Canadian governments will not.

NEXT BY THIS SUNDAY: THE PERFECT CRIME which looks at the various moral, political and economic issues that have kept this nuclear holocaust hidden from the people.

Mar 11th is near, a 1 year milepost and without doubt we’ve passed many miles of comments here. So MANY passionate comments! Thanks AGAIN and AGAIN for all of you who reach out to share; and to Man Hands, Lady Fingers & Co. for their well-honed diligent practices and impassioned reporting; and for this website and those who contribute to its mechanics.

Simple or arduous, may our choices keep strong the pillars of inspiration, truth, compassion and our health.

At some point there will come a ‘turning point’. Perhaps this day, this rad reading, this article, is the one? I hope so.

@MargeryBrown This was so well stated and so heart felt, I really don’t know what to say. I think we all wrestle with this question every day. “…and how could I possibly spoil their joy by sharing this information with them? And, how could I not?”

‘Horribly Scary’ is just one descriptor to use when I think of 3 years, 5 years and 10 years from now. What will we be seeing then? The truth is, it won’t matter whose ‘estimates’ of morbidity rates was more accurate.

@roundabout I agree with your observation about people dropping dead over the last three months and those that are ill becoming sicker. No doubt in my mind.

When will the day come? …that ‘turning point’ in time, where some kind of “ALERT” is actually issued or even talked about?
