Carl,
Since all the Trinitite was formed in July, 1945,
it's been undergoing radioactive decay for 64 years
now. The hot stuff in there decays rapidly. Its level
of activity is very weak now compared to when it was
"fresh." Trinitite would hardly make a geiger counter
twitter any more.

Hi MikeG,
Where did you get that 9 drawer chest? Did you make that? I built
something similar made of cardboard. It was to be a prototype but it
works fine for now. I like those apothecary jars. Reminds me of an old
candy counter at a drugstore. Would the meteorites near to the
trinitites absorb radiation? I've always wondered about them.
Carl
