I was in high school in 1974 and 1976,....

And when I started my sophomore year of college I was still 17,...

You guys were sponging 1800mr/yr before my spermatocytes went on active duty :P ;) :) 8)

1800?

In 1978 I got over 6,000! (IP2 to Pilgrim to IP2 and back to Pilgrim.)

1.8 Rem/yr.  Come on we are talking a different age - my worst was about 7.2 (but, you probably don't remember 5N-18) when you were still in HS!  But, it wasn't sponging, it was a totally different mind set and different application of ALARA!

Today I see, total dose suffers in deference to keeping individual dose less than the coming regulation.

As S/G control point put a worker into the S/G 31st March for 2.8 Rem.  Next day he was back (April 1st - new quarter) and we sent him in for another 2.8 Rem.  
To keep it semi on topic - Millstone 1980 then back in 2000 for the Decommissioning Unit 1

We did that once at a plant I will not name but it was October 31st - November 1st and since it was night shift he didn't even need to go home between jumps. He (actually two guys) got about 5.5 Rem in one shift. I am glad we don't get to do that anymore.
