guzziguy Posted June 7, 2012 Report Posted June 7, 2012 You know, taxidermy was creepy enough before that came along. Now we need a new word. "Ultra-creepy"? "Über-creepy"? I think that "disgusting" exactly describes this.

Knuckledragger Posted June 8, 2012 Author Report Posted June 8, 2012 Reddit, I think there is a giant (nuclear) coverup afoot. Before you label me as a tin-foil hat wearer, consider the following: Live records for multiple radiation monitoring stations near the border of Indiana and Michigan have shown radiation levels as high as 7,139 counts per minute (CPM). The level varied between 2,000 CPM and 7,000 CPM for several hours early this morning (EST). Normal radiation levels are between 5 and 60 CPM, and any readings above 100 CPM should be considered unusual and trigger an alert, according to information listed on the RadNet website (at EPA.gov) [1] Digital Journal reported earlier today that near the Indiana & Michigan borders Geiger detectors from the EPA & Black Cat were showing insanely elevated radiation levels. They quickly changed their story fundamentally, but not before I went OCD on it (see also my username). I personally conversed with the NRC today as well as the Hazmat response Captain for the Indiana State Police. Here is a quick pic, before it was redacted / "corrected". Notice it is NOT the EPA's RadNet open-air detector in Fort Wayne, but another privately run detector near South Bend, owned by Radiation Network: [2] RadiationNetworkcorrection" and called it a false alarm, claiming that their "false alarm" was also the same cause for Black Cat... but what about the EPA's federal detectors, the ones that don't use the same information streams as RadiationNetwork? Read on: EPA's "near-realtime" open-air geiger counter for Ft Wayne Indiana [4] no longer shows live data but cuts off May 19th. This morning, it didn't (hence the basis for [5] this comment), but by using the EPA.gov RADNET query tool, WE CAN STILL PULL THE DATA UP [6] as in this screenshotcheck here Want more? The area of interest isn't very far away from this [8] strange event that just happened the other day where no fault line is present. More? The DOD owns [9] about 130,000 acres of land in the area. Also, I remind you that it was the EPA's federal detectors and privately owned / Internet enthusiast detectors FROM TWO DIFFERENT PLACES (BlackCat & the Radiation Network) reporting the same incident. Tell me Reddit, am I paranoid? EDIT 14 pwns EDIT 7: [10] Redditor says: Central Ohio here. I work at a large public university (not hard to guess which) next to a small research reactor that's located near the back of campus. There's (normally) a large fleet of hazmat response trucks and trailers parked in the nearby lot. Most of them are NIMS early response vehicles funded by Homeland Security (says so right on them). Haven't seen them move once since I started working a few years ago. Tonight? All gone. edit: will try to get pictures tonight/tomorrow EDIT 7 comes first: To those who say it was still a malfunction: You miss a VERY elementary point: one detector was privately ran in South Bend. That one "malfunctioned". But then the data is corroborated by a federally ran detector in Ft Wayne, a good drive away. And then more data as time goes on from other detectors. Like here, where [11] one can see the drifts over Little Rock, AR 12 hours laterthe wind maps. For those that don't seem to know, that's a long way away from Ft Wayne. And the "average" CPM level in Little Rock has been around 8 CPM for the past 12 months. and to those that point to the pinhole coolant leak in Dayton: that pinhole leak couldn't possibly account for the levels seen here, and it was in hot standby mode (hot & pressurized, but no fission) because it was being refueled. And the workers would have triggered alarms if they were contaminated. EDIT 11 also jumps the line: On a tip, I called the Traverse City Fire Dept and asked them if they noticed anything unusual, muttered that I was with the "nuclear reddit board". They confirmed they had unusually high readings, and that they reported them to the NRC earlier today. EDIT 1 [13] It's spreading as you would expect EDIT 2 More "human numbers": The actual dose from other redditor / semi-pro opinion + myself is speculated to be... RE-EDIT: Guess you'll never know, because armchair-physicists want to argue too wildly for consensus. EDIT 3: [14] EDIT 4 I heard from a semi-verified source that minot afb in north dakota, one of the largest nuclear bases, is running a nuclear response and containment "training exercise" right now with their b-52s. take this with a grain of salt, I'm not vouching for it EDIT: [15] this redditor verifies EDIT 5: some redditors keep talking about seeing gov't helicopters: [16] here and [17] here and [18] here <- UPDATE: this one now has video EDIT 6: Someone posted it to AskScience, but [19] a mod deleted it and removed comments >>>> EDIT 8: > Twes [+1] 11 minutes ago I mean, it is kind of interesting to speculate about... I will at the very least continue to watch this thread/ news stories. I don't know if someone in the 2000 comments has posted this, but before the spike, radiation levels were around 1 to 2 times normal. After the spike they are staying at a constant 5 to 7 times normal.

Nebby Posted June 8, 2012 Report Posted June 8, 2012 (edited) I'm stuck waiting for some very slow software to run.... that reddit thread is filling the gap nicely. I was amazed when he posted an update recommending people take potassium iodide just in case, stating that there was no harm in taking some. He didn't take down the recommendation even when the mods told him to do so, until they took down his post. then he replaced it with: EDIT 26: I never once said it was dangerous or that it was NOT dangerous. BUT, for those who want to take preventative measures / keep flooding my inbox EDIT: removed medical advice regarding potassium iodide due to mod request. :facepalm: Edited June 8, 2012 by Nebby
