FLASHBACK - New York wants to ban geiger counters I'm not making this up: http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/01/08/a-license-to-check-for-wmds/ is reporting that New York City wants to require "licenses" for any detector for nuclear, biological, or chemical detectors. We know how "permitting" devices works in Chicago--they never banned handguns in the city, they simply stopped issuing permits for them. Webmaster's Commentary: We are already seeing propaganda pieces claiming that citizens' detectors are not reliable and how we should all put our trust in the official figures for radiation release. I wonder if in their struggle to save the Pacific Commercial Fishing Industry if the US Government will consider banning radiation detectors in the hands of private citizens. Use a scintillometer, go to jail?

Just don`t go to NYC with a Geiger counter and you`ll be cool. You`re welcome in advance.

Actually I do own one. I have no idea where I put it tho. I did not throw it out- so it is in a box somewhere here.

Anyhow- if a private citizen wants to measure the radiation levels- this should not be illegal. Many of the official govt monitors are down. how convenient.

New York licenses (not bans) everything. It's the state government's way of pretending they're cutting taxes.

Cant you just slap some tinfoil on your head and make noises, and let it go at that hunkster?

You don't have to. You can just smuggle in yours from Pennsylvania....if you ever find it again.

Why would he check radiation in NY? Is he doing a PrisonPlanet documentary? Whatever the reason hunkie, if you do go over to NY with your geiger, take the tinfoil off, its a dead giveaway. And for fucks sake, don't say a word, and wear sunglasses so they can't see your eyes.

It's the irritating ticking noise that sounds like a rat taking a pee on a cocktail umbrella. Sound pollution.
