Your Radiation This Week No 75 and 76

(San Francisco) October 8, 2016 – Good Day, this is “Your Radiation This Week” for the past 2 weeks. These are the Recorded Beta and Gamma Combined Radiation Highs that affected people around the United States. YRTW  is published every two weeks on Saturday. The next publication dates are October 22 and November 5, 2016.

Radiation CPM * City State

Listed in Counts per Minute, a Count is one Radioactive Decay Registered by the Instrument. The Top Reporting Radioactive Cities are listed. The highest radiation reporting city is listed first, the least radioactive city reporting is listed last.

Still, all reporting cities are above normal. These are a portion of the American cities that exceeded 1,000 CPM these past 2 weeks. 41 Cities are Reporting Radiation Above 1,000 CPM. Take all necessary precautions.

Rad Cities in CPM Order

Normal Radiation is 5 to 20 CPM [4]

Count – 41 Cities Reporting Radiation Above 1,000 CPM

Rad Cities in Alphabetical Order [NEW ITEM]

Count – 41 Cities Reporting Radiation Above 1,000 CPM

Normal Radiation is 5 to 20 CPM [4]

Changes

New Item – Effective this issue  “Rad Cities in Alphabetical Order” is an addition to the Rad List. It includes the exact cities as the first list that is Ordered by the Rad CPM number. The only difference is the way they are Sorted.

The Combined Beta and Gamma Radiation numbers publication dates are changed to publication twice a month. The next publication date for the reporting cities’ Radiation Numbers are October 22 and November 5, 2016.

The YRTW Table of poisoned American cities has changed by adding a Column on the Right hand side. It is labeled “Corrupted?” The purpose of the column is to provide guidance as to the reliability, consistency and truthfulness of an individual city’s High Rad reading for the last 2 weeks.

Since a city’s report is subject to many strongly felt opinions that can affect Rad Readings, whether or not the Rad Unit was reporting at least 336 Hours (24 Hours x 7 Days x 2 Weeks)  takes on additional importance. The number of hours the machines work in a week is not an opinion, it is a fact. Of course, it may be falsified. That is a crime and may be prosecuted.

The Actual Number of Rad Readings is a number, a measure of efficiency. The unit either reported publicly; or it failed to do so 100% of the time. It can’t do both. Of course, it may be falsified.

There should be One Reading per Hour for the 2 week period, that’s 336 Rad Readings. The corruption may originate with a machine error, programming glitch, human intervention or change, intended or not. Of course, it may be falsified. That is a crime and may be prosecuted; but probably not. Will it instead be rewarded; yea, probably so.

Corrupted?

The response may be “Yes” for “Yes, it is corrupted.” The entry will be “Left Blank” for “Not Suspected.” The most common departure from normal radiation reporting is reporting less than 168 times a week or 336 times every two weeks.

New Category – MIA 1YrHigh

“MIA 1YrHigh” and “MIA 7YrHigh” are new categories under the column labeled Type of Rad. It means “Missing in Action – x Year High.”
