Fukushima radiation is an issue to be sure.

But compared to all the radiation we unleashed in the 40’s,50’s and 60’s I wonder if its not just “more of the same”

The above often gets way more detailed than I need/want but it sure does track this issue without letting up.

Yeah, having grown up adjacent to Hanford in the 50s and 60s and living here to this day, I'm having trouble getting that worked up about it.

Thanks for the links. I can’t compare with the 40s 50s, 60s.

They did go from testing in the Pacific in the 40s to testing underground....

No idea about radiation amounts from those tests compared to Fukushima, but 3 reactors blew up, still leaking.

I just would feel better if I can do some baseline tests and then continue to test in future....I would like to test stuff I catch.

You might find this interesting. After watching this (about 20 minutes and TURN UP THE SOUND), you'll wonder why the entire west coast of the US doesn't glow in the dark.
