Hey Russ "What does 100 Tons of Uranium look like?"
Russ explains in this short Edu-Video and the short explanation below the video box
Hey Russ,” What does 100 Tonnes of Uranium look like and how long will it be around?”
The problem with this type of conversion is that it isn't as simple as it sounds. For example, a metric ton is a unit of weight and liter is a unit of volume. To complete a calculation such as this, you need to be able to factor in the density of the substance that you are looking to convert and include that in the formula calculation.
In the case of Uranium, due to its complexity and atomic properties, standard density conversions do not apply, however here is a link to conversion calculator which has the specific factor number for calculating measurements of uranium.

100 Tonnes (Metric) of Uranium Dioxide/Hexaflouride equals
100,000,000 grams
220,462 pounds
33.2 Oil Drums
The figure of 10,000 some odd gallons of water from your sprinkler system I took from using the “Official Number” of 300 Tons of water leaking into the Pacific Ocean everyday (and even figure that changes) and I show how to make that conversion from Tons of water to gallons of water here fukushimatruths.freeforums.net/thread/411/gallons-water-tons-released-daily

If the cores are in the underground river which the Fukushima site was built on, the figure is likely closer to 1 million gallons per day, but I can’t verify that, so I will use the released figures of 300-400 Tons per day of water leaking into the Pacific.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-life
Half-life (t½) is the amount of time required for a quantity to fall to half its value as measured at the beginning of the time period. While the term "half-life" can be used to describe any quantity which follows an exponential decay, it is most often used within the context of nuclear physics and nuclear chemistry—that is, the time required, probabilistically, for half of the unstable, radioactive atoms in a sample to undergo radioactive decay.
The original term, dating to Ernest Rutherford's discovery of the principle in 1907, was "half-life period", which was shortened to "half-life" in the early 1950s.[1] Rutherford applied the principle of a radioactive elements' half-life to studies of age determination of rocks by measuring the decay period of radium to lead-206.
Half-life is used to describe a quantity undergoing exponential decay, and is constant over the lifetime of the decaying quantity. It is a characteristic unit for the exponential decay equation. The term "half-life" may generically be used to refer to any period of time in which a quantity falls by half, even if the decay is not exponential. The table on the right shows the reduction of a quantity in terms of the number of half-lives elapsed. For a general introduction and description of exponential decay, see exponential decay. For a general introduction and description of non-exponential decay, see rate law. The converse of half-life is doubling time.

so whats happening in the Solomons, is haarp missing its mark?
