On the other hand, I miss that guy.

He is not banned.

I just sold a saz1500d v2 in excellent condition locally today, I bet it'll be fried in a few months... Buyer didn't want to spend 60 bucks on proper power wire, much less a battery or h/o alt.

I know nothing about radiation Peng so thanks.

The average human receives background radiation doses of around 300 mrem per year. The current federal (USA) occupational limit of exposure per year for an adult is not to exceed 5,000 millirems above the 300 mrem background dose. Doing the math, a US nuclear plant employee would get a years worth of dose in 6 hours just standing at the outer fence boundary :excl: :excl:

what do you guys think? Sell my Evo for this. Insurance is killing me so...

It is an ok car. You can wring some power out of that little engine, but the issue is getting to the ground and not snapping your wrists when you are WOT.

Thankfully all of the reactors are completely shut down; the problem now is dissipating the residual heat from the reactor vessels

And again, if you're at the outer fence boundary you shouldn't be reading anything above background. They're not out of the woods yet, but the worst seems to be over.

Wow. Freaky.

Sean have you heard differently about the radiation? From my understanding it's not as bas as the media is putting out... but with the fire recently I read quite a bit escaped....

They are just so effed over there right now.

last I heard it was 821 mrem/hr at the site boundary; considering that anything about background levels at the site boundary is usually a cause for alarm, its quite troubling. Even my father, with 20+ in the industry, said "holy shit!" when he heard the radiation levels

Wow, twice that of Brazil nuts. Whoop de fucking do. Nice job with the media there.

I know, he left

never worked with nagese...not sure where this was asked, just wsa thinking about Japan

I don't follow?

[Penguin4x4 1,761]

You would have to eat somewhere in the neighborhood of 13 lbs. of Brazil nuts per minute to equal the dose rates experienced at the site boundary

The stupid french said that things could get worse than Chernobyl. But most of the other voices say that is the absolute worst case scenario.

Either way, seems like they are working to keep things under control...

Good cars.

The 1.8 turbo in that small body moves nice

[Adrian_D 520]

One enclosure back fiberglassed in place. Sucks working in a trunk. I was spoiled to do such work only in hatchback until now.

[nem 2,019]

A guy at the local bike club wears that.

Figured if it were one of your friends they'd be splattered

You have that right!

[nem 2,019]

I asked that. I was curious.

[nem 2,019]

So I just returned from possibly our new location. We did a walk through with the borough dicussing our plans and possible zoning issues. Guess we will see.

I had a conversion problem and read that Bq = Sv approximately. Not a nuclear physicist by any means.

[Penguin4x4 1,761]

A Sievert is the measure of the radiation dose to tissue

1 Sievert = 1 J/kg = 1 m²/s²

1 mrem = 10 μSv

A Becquerel is the activity of a quantity of radioactive material in which one nucleus decays per second.

1 Bq = 1 s⁻¹

Thanks, found that. When I read it first it stated what you did but that Bq & Sv were equivalent. I took that to mean in levels as well.

radiation makes my popcorn pop... Can't be that bad for you.

[Adrian_D 520]

Matt, thanks for the laugh

Feels a bit wrong but I can't help it

[dem beats 1,223]

Crap, too soon? I wasn't thinking about the reactor anymore..... My mind wandered off.

I was honestly thinking about the fact it seams everything we do is just on the verge of killing us, or at least that's what lots of people would have you beleive. Even if that was true why focus on it's evilness. Focus on making it better or on being smarter about it.

[dem beats 1,223]

I killed the HOP!

[nem 2,019]

I killed the HOP!

You spread too much radiation.
