Popular notions are ALWAYS wrong. If you don't know that,
then you've
haven't studied history and you're to young to have
learned it from
experience. Hardly a century goes by without doomsday
predictions becoming
popular notions. I lived through the global cooling
hysteria of the 70's, so
please spare me the ignorant ranting of the true
believers.
Someday the earth may cool to absolute zero or heat to a
million degrees. I
don't know. All anybody "knows" is what they think the
historical record
shows: that the earth gets really cold and the earth gets
really hot.
The rest is the clucking of hens.

My Dad was a CD guy...we had a geiger counter..it was cool!
Kewl. I bought one of those CD Geiger counters, a reconditioned and
tested one, almost new in the box, a while back. Loads of fun, but so
far not a lot of radioactivity around to discover. Guess I'll have to
wait until Ahmadinijad does some atmospheric testing.

You can test smoke alarms...
No good for radon, though. Radon emits mostly alpha particles, and the
aluminum shield over the sensing tube stops 'em.

Well, that's no fun....
