Man, I live in Hamburg!!

A day's radiation here is about what you would get in 5 minutes anywhere else.

Forgot the last time I saw the sun!



And actually that was part of my point, background radiation will vary from place to place, whereas if they made a reference to something even as mundane as a X-ray machine at your local dentist people could associate it with something that is everyday.

I’m just making a fuss!! I miss the sun!
