Every one knows that they are being constantly irradiated by the natural occuring radiatin from both the earth on which they live and the stuff coming from space.

Only Nuke sub crews who have spent many hours/days under water have recieved less radiation than the rest of us. We know that ...right?

The trial lawyers have found mesothelioma...don't you all feel better?

Did you know that when you are in space and you close your eyes is possible to see the radioactive particles that are passing though you. :DL

The adult human body naturally contains deuterium (heavy water) equivalent to that in five grams of water.

Deutronium (heavy water) was used as a moderator. On its own it is not radio-active.
