Thanks for the information & post!
Thank you ForestBeekeeper:thumb:
Do you know of a map that might show what IS in every state?
More importantly, do you know WHICH state DOES NOT have anything
nuclear?
I originally looked at Colorado as well, but it turns out it has a nuclear research facility (this does not show up in the map with the red circles)
Also, something that made me even worry some more, I have read several articles that lead you to
believe that the reason the east & northeast has such high cancer rates, is because of the Nevada testing done in the 1950's
Supposedly, the wind would have carried everything over going east.
The rain & snow dropping it to the ground, the cows eating the grass, people
in turn drinking the milk. What about it falling on all of our farms along the way, again we turned around and ate that food, drank the milk, etc.
In addition, even when the regular testing stopped, they continued to do
underground testing...
With the exception of Washington, Oregon & California, everything to the East, North, South of Nevada got hit, during the testing.
If people are worried about Fukushima coming over in the air, we would all
be affected by what happened inside our own country, right?
And the thing with cancer, is that depending on the amount one receives, your particular genes, family history, diet,
it can take a short or longer period of time.
Some of the people getting a direct hit, lets say in Utah have already passed
away. Whereas others further away lived a bit longer.
So, what do you think of this possibility?
And now, with the Hanford site in Washington state, there have been
lawsuits there because of cancer cases in the area. And I am sure it will
affect people in Washington, Idaho, Oregon & maybe even California.
Regarding the East coast, what about Three Mile Island, didn't that affect the entire area?
So, we have poisoned our entire country!
FB, could you please let me know which states do not have anything nuclear?
I will be really grateful!
Many thanks!
I honestly do not know why these guys making nuclear maps refuse to show the military reactors, the university reactors, the nuc warhead storage facilities, and the core storage sites.
I have no idea.
A map showing less than half of all our reactors, is king of lacking data.
Personally I think they are done to mislead.
Why else show more on the East coast than on the West coast?
On a different forum I am in a Maine thread about Maine's high cancer rate.
The overall national average is like 511.4 cases for every 100,000 people.
In Maine it is 522.6 cases for every 100,000 people
They are all upset and concerned. The CDC and many health agencies are trying to figure it out. We are not in the fall-out pattern for any nuc facilities, we do not have higher radiation then anyone else. They have studied many factors, and so far can not isolate why.
I look at it like this:
522.6 / 100k = 0.005226 or 0.52%, 1/2 of 1% chance
as compared to
511.4 / 100k = 0.005114 or 0.51%, 1/2 of 1% chance
It is still more likely that a person will be audited by the IRS, or fly on a commercial airline with a drunken pilot.
