Safes Come Ashore on Japanese Beaches

[Old Bookaroo]

Greetings:

This is somewhat macabre story. Apparently its common in Japan for people to keep cash at home (particularly older folks - similar to here in the US).

Now the safes and strongboxes from destroyed homes are washing ashore.

Can you imagine just how much jewelery is lost in that devastation. Safes are large and easy to spot, just think of how many thousands of small gold rings, bracelets, and necklaces are laying there unable to be spotted under the mud and debris.

you could detect at night with no problem, with the radiation glow and all, would not even need a flashlight

I checked with SNOPES and this works....................

With all the fear of radiation fallout from Japan I thought it might be useful to tell you about a cheap, effective, homemade
radiation tester you can easily assemble and rely upon.
Follow these simple instructions, IT REALLY WORKS!!
