The EPA RERT is set up outside my office building. DEQ is housed in the building too, but they don't know why two EPA 18 wheelers are set up outside.
I won't be able to enjoy the snow day if get radiation poisoning leaving work today.

But you'll glow in the dark at Christmas time. Could be fun for the kids.

You can still enjoy the snow day it will be months before you feel the affects.

depends on who you asked at DEQ. I worked there on the 11th floor and had friends at DEQ and a lot of times they didn't know about things like that...

Anyone have a spare radiography source and a REALLY jumpy stray dog? It's time to liven this party up.

Did you speak with folks in Emergency Response or the radiation group? They probably know, some random won't.
