   My calculations show: if the half-life of Strontium-90 fallout residue is 28.9   
   years, then it would take:   
      
   * 96.0 years for the fallout to drop to 10% of the initial blast, and   
   * 192.0 years for the fallout to drop to 1% of the initial blast.   
      
   Please verify.   
      
   The formula is:   
      
   t = - 28.9y × (log 0.01 / log 2)   
      
   or   
      
   t = - half-life × (log (percentage / 100) / log 2)   
      
   in the LORD

   Second question:   
      
   I am unable to calculate how much exactly nuclear fallout would be generated   
   by Mr. Putin's 5977 nukes,   
   in the theoretical case the "weak" West doesn't respond and launch its own?   
      
   I am unable to calculate that, for I don't know how much Strontium-90 is   
   generated from 1 kg of plutonium   
   in a fission explosion?   
      
   Of course, I am aware that there are other possibly more radioactive and more   
   chemically toxic byproducts   
   of a nuclear explosion.   
      
   Would the mushroom clouds keep the radiation over the West alone, or do the   
   winds blow like cyclones and   
   anticyclones from West to East and bring weather and fallout with them?   
      
   I am, of course, speaking of the theoretical case that Russian launches its   
   missiles and the USA don't.   
      
   (Was that called Abraham's sacrifice in one of the movies discussing nuclear   
   Armageddon?)   
      
   in the LORD   
   Amen
