I relocated from the UK to VT and I’ve never felt more welcomed. I now pay it forwards when ever i can, like helping visitors trying to take. A group photo by a covered bridge or I’m fairly handy and have a truck+trailer so helping move or take down/put up/move something that’s beyond someone’s physical or diy ability.

The way I figure it is if we al do random nice things for each other we can keep VT nice.

Was that actually a significant problem? I’m being serious.

Tritium has a half life of 12.3 years, which is relatively short.

According to what I found on atomic insights VT YANKEE was leaking 100gal(320L)/day of water containing 2.5million picocuries/liter.

That’s 0.35 curies/ year of radiation diluted in 138,000 liters of water.

If you drank all that water yourself you’d get a dose or ~30 rem, which is around the max yearly dose for a us radiation worker. Realistically you’d end up consuming a such a small fraction of that water it would not impact you.
