AW: [ RadSafe ] " Technology to detect radiation has progressed "

Wed Aug 29 11:48:33 CDT 2007

Helen,

I hardly dare to write at RADSAFE any more, that I disagree - not even
respectfully, because of a rather funny reaction of one single participant
in the list, when I respectfully disagreed on a subject, but:

Since commercial fertilizers usually contain a lot of potassium and
therefore K-40 a radiation detector would have detected the fertilizer.

To live up to the expectation of the above mentioned person I have to add
something about Austria: We also produce fertilizers in Austria, but I do
not expect them to be better than US ones.

Thanks for the good advices at the end of your post. I always smile about
people who lose control and get infuriated without any reason. I also smile
at those who have a lack of humor and cannot detect irony like in this mail.
(The K-40 in fertilizers is no irony....)

Best regards,

Franz

The Alfred P Murrah Federal Building was attacked April 19, 1995, don't
know about radiation monitors in either the Murrah or Merril Buildings,
I don't know that it would have detected the truck load of fertilizer
and sundry items used to make the explosives, any more than a radiation
detector would have detected an airplane full of jet fuel aimed at any
given building.  I don't even think they'd detect the one ounce tube of
lotion I had to give up at the airport in Boise because I forgot it was
in my purse....

Life is short - Break the rules!  Forgive quickly!  Kiss slowly!  Love
truly! Laugh uncontrollably!... And never regret anything that made you
smile.

Was Oklahoma City before 2001?  Did the government

start to install radiation monitors after the attack

on the Merril Building?
