[ RadSafe ] Airlines diverting polar flights due solar storm

[Richard L. Hess]

As a baseline, you may recall a demonstration I did about a dozen years 
ago...

The uR calibration is based on cesium, I believe, and I probably should 
have just logged CPM, but you get the idea.

Hopefully it will be clear tonight and we'll finally see an aurora in 
Aurora, Ontario...they have been visible here, but I've never seen one.

Cheers,

Richard
