With the disaster unfolding in Japan getting worse every hour, I have decided to break out my nuke gear and power it all up.
We might start dosing with the
KI today, depending on the situation in Japan. If you have no KI (Potassium Iodide) or KIO3 (Potassium Iodate), you should seriously consider getting some now.
Survival Unlimited has the best price I found ($8.99) while looking around on the net so I ordered 6 bottles. Better order now before it is gone! I have no affiliation with this site. If you need dosimeters and a survey meter,
KI4U, Inc. is a good choice as they are a calibration service provider. They are however as of this posting not accepting new orders until they get caught up on the deluge of orders they have received! If you can't wait, do a web search and you will find someone else who may provide this service much cheaper and faster.

6. CDV-715 Radiation Survey Meter

8. CD V-750 Dosimeter Charger
All of this can be purchased for $500 at
Survival Unlimited. Their's is the best price I saw for the complete kit.
If you are allergic to shellfish or have Gout, consult your doctor before using KI or KIO3, as with any new medication.
