<p><strong>Hey Heckbert. Are you a salesman for book publishers? </strong></p>
<p><strong>Life itself is precarious. And we have to be careful what choices we make. But we cannot be overly paranoid about what we do. Parents being paranoid stifles the growth of their offspring.

<p>Sand might help with winter traction, but brine is useful in both winter and summer. in winter the salt in/on the dirt/gravel road melts ice (but also softens road, limiting heavy truck use), in the summer, the salt absorbs moisture from the air reducing dust. most of the brine that is used is from shallow wells - it is sea water (salt water seas don't stop at the beach), not the fracing flowback waste.</p>

<p>The fracking in your area is more than very important.</p>
<p>It is upending much of the global status in myriad and profound ways that will reverberate for generations to come.</p>
<p>The new aluminum smelter(s) opening up in Kentucky (first new one in over 40 years), the massive Foxxcon plant in Wisconsin, the rush of foreign manufacturers into Tennessee, South Carolina, Ohio and others are just the start of an industrial renaissance that will rejuvenate your region for decades.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Your local producers (gas E&PS) will be battling with the surge of associated gas coming out of Oklahoma and Texas, but the sheer size of both the Mighty Marcellus and Utica formations ensure that development will extend out over a century.</p>
<p>Yes, over 100 years, and that includes the anticipated transition of widespread acceptance of natgas in the transportation sector.</p>
<p>Advances in Adsorbed Natural Gas combined with the WTI/HH spread provide VERY strong incentives to move to natgas for vehicles. (Already transitioning with busses/trucks).</p>
<p>Paul Heckbert is amongst the diminishing - yet increasingly frantic - cohort that is desperate to stave off hydrocarbon expansion in favor of their preposterous wind/solar applications.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Europe and Australia are reeling from the catastrophic cost of electricity that is devastating their industrial potential while impoverishing their residents.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Yes, certainly Mr. Heckbert's posts can provide opportunity for education and the ongoing discussions.</p>

The three factors in dealing with radiation are time, distance, and shielding. Did I mention that water molecules are excellent shields?<br />

Temperature inversions can trap naturally occurring Radon close to the earths surface and increase our exposure.<br />
A well insulated home in the winter is where we get most of our Radon exposure from. Open those windows, air out that house.<br />
One of the experiments in space was to grow bacteria in a radiation free environment, the bacteria died. They concluded that all living things on earth require some radiation to live. Try getting your naturally occurring vitamin D3 without getting any radiation.<br />

<p>Radium gives off radiation in the form of an alpha particle. Its the same as a helium atom with a ++ charge. It cannot penetrate the dead layer of your skin and is found naturally occurring. You would have to eat it for it to damage your cells.</p>
