    The way I understand the graph is that it displays the amount of C14 in some
    coal samples as a percent of modern carbon (meaning C12) . So 2 samples (as
    indicated on the graph) had the C14/C12 ratio of 0.1 percent (0.1%). Or 1 C14
    atoms per 1000 C12 atoms -- 1 C14 / 1000 C12. That seems pretty straight
    forward to me.
