Btw... my point of the radiation of Nuclear above ground tests...

The steel they need to make Geiger counters has to be from pre 1945 smelted steel. Basically, they scavenge off sunken WWII vessels.

Since 1945, the smelting process is using air contaminated with radioactive particles which makes the Geiger counter useless.

Also it seems to forgotten about how leukaemia cases in children seemed to rise for no reason whatsoever.... or was it that Strontium-90 was being absorbed by kids bones....

..."The study's final results showed that children born in 1963 had levels of 90Sr in their deciduous teeth that was 50 times higher than that found in children born in 1950, before the advent of large-scale atomic testing. An article with the study's initial findings was circulated to U.S. President John F. Kennedy in 1961, and helped convince him to sign the Partial Nuclear Test Ban Treaty with the United Kingdom and Soviet Union, ending the above-ground nuclear weapons testing that placed the greatest amounts of nuclear fallout into the atmosphere."

IE... we poisoned our own children in order to look like big kids with big bombs.
