22. Oh for heaven's sake
Edited on Thu Apr-14-11 11:18 AM by Aerows
Let's not play mathematics games. That might work for some, but it isn't going to work for people with a scientific and mathematical background. Within ten half-lives, which would be around 6 hours or 370 minutes, .01% of the original isotope would still be around LOL, if not less.

Let's not pretend that 15 *days* after this disaster started that the detected neutrons and Cl - isotopes were still around, and certainly not in the quantities detected without fission still occurring at the plant.
