I would like to think that we are more aware and that over the long term more lives will be saved than the lesson has cost us.

There will always be proud spreaders, though.

It is more likely that the difference was CA closed stuff down early while NYC partied in Chinatown.

As much of a skin tag as Newsom is, he at least recognized the threat. Bill de Blasio and Andrew Cuomo were actively encouraging destructive behavior.

Fluoride is a byproduct of fission.

Disagree. When enriching uranium, we make uranium hexafluoride gas. After separation into U-235 and U-238 fractions, the fluoride is stripped off. It's a waste by-product of enrichment, but there isn't any fission going on there. Fission implies a radioactive decay event.

Huh, misread the chart. You have to go to the tab “fission yields” THEN double click on an item to see if it populates the screen at the bottom.
