SEE THE UPDATE @ http://pissinontheroses.blogspot.com/2012/06/data-shows-highly-radioactive-field.html
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The June 6-7, 2012 high radiation event in South Bend, Indiana was likely an actual detection of high levels of radioactivity. We have completed a reanalysis of the data from the Indiana detection and resolved a previous ambiguity related to bi-modal peak clipping evident in the detection data.
Despite supportive wind data and a matching increase and decline and radioactivity, our initial false detection "gut reaction" was influenced by a report of an electrical fault. That fault report limited our analysis boundary condition in viewing the bimodial peaking clipping radiation reading as possibly being driven by a wiring fault.
Further analysis indicates that the bimodal radiation peaking is actually extremely strongly indicative of an actual high range radioactive field being measured by the Geiger counter.
Much, much more is to follow. A video update with an easier to understand explanation will follow this evening.

Is it possible for the detection in South Bend to be related to the Nuclear event at Davis-Besse on the same day?
ReplyDeleteNo idea, but one would hope that it came from a nuke plant that there would have been a report.
DeleteThere's a Radiation Laboratory on Notre Dame's campus (though I don't think they have an actual reactor on campus). I don't know anything about what they do at this lab, but do you think it is possible that such a lab could cause the release of levels like those detected in South Bend?
DeleteHere is information about the lab:

There is nothing particular on those web pages that would make me think that they were the source. Look for something capable of producing or storing radioactive gases. What we really need is more information about the location of the detection and some surface wipes from the same.
