    Well, I suppose if you want to monitor the air quality on a Glasgow street, where else would you put the detector!
    Not many places would have an alcohol reading though. ;)

    It does not exactly inspire confidence of accurate reading with beer kegs and grafitti all over it.:eek: This will probably increase the IQ of them weegies anyway lol

    The UK has 19 nuclear reactors and they of course say that it is coming from Japan.

    Perfect time for a cover up.

    Has the UK nuclear industry got a schedule of planned accidents! :rolleyes:

    or are you saying that they plan to "lose" some radioactive stuff now andover the next few days.

    It's been detected all over Europe apparently, including Dublin.

    So, its a scruffy box on a street, with some graffiti on and some beer kegs next to it. What does this say about the quality of the instrumentation inside the box ? NOTHING.

    This could be from the bombs they are dropping in Libya at the min:eek:

    I suspect that whoever posted it on youtube, was expecting the monitoring station to be "scientific" looking as opposed to being a box in a street surrounded by stuff.

    Maybe he believes the empty beer kegs are going to skew the "street level air quality" results, though it might get a bit tipsy on the beer fumes. ;)

    You will literally get more radiation from eating a banana.

    Seriously, it's nothing.

    You should all have a look at this, it's brilliant for putting things into perspective. http://xkcd.com/radiation/
