RE: Radiation-Proof Uniform?



Friends:
 
I've checked out their website and talked with one of their people.  They are sending me some info.  They concede that their current product has little effect on high-energy gammas, such as from Co-60, and even less on cosmic rays.  But they claim that they will be able to develop a product that will be effective for such sources and are working on it. 
 
I am highly skeptical, but will get back to you after I've read their material and talked with their technical director, Joe Kucherovski.

Okay, I must know, who's going to buy one of these and irradiate it and make measurements on the other side?  Please, someone must do this.  This would be hilarious.
