join:2005-01-03 | I just want to... I just want to honestly ask each and every one of these Homeowners Ass. Members if they own CRTs, DirecTV or Dish equipment, fluorescent light bulbs/fixtures, cell phones, baby monitors, two-way radios, cordless phones, and Microwave ovens. When they all answer yes to most of the devices (which they would), I would kindly inform them that I will personally disassemble the city-wide wi-fi network myself as soon as they bring all of their above-mentioned devices to a community bonfire to be incinerated!
They want a radiation free environment? Let's give it to them!

| Technically you can never have a radiation free environment. If all of the technology on earth was completely gone, actually if everything simply did not exist on earth we would still be bombarded with radiation.
Radiation is such a plain term. It is to broad. There is radiation everywhere all the time. Even in a lead box there is probably still some radiation left.
This whole thread makes no sense, why is it even being debated? Is this just to make fun of these people? They have there beliefs, let them be. Unfortunately they will not return the same favor, leave us be. |

Monmouth Junction, NJ | I agree...hate to say this but even with any sort of electronic equipment shutdown (which by the way doesn't subject you to ionizing radiation), you are still subjected to cosmic radiation, radon, and other naturally occuring sources of ionizing radiation.
Hope these same people don't use smoke detectors (contain Americium-241) or use old camping lanterns (mantles contain Thorium-90)
Laregely from natural sources and a little from man-made sources, we all still get around 300mrem/yr of exposure on average...
Me, I'm just going to wear my foil hat to keep the zoomies away...

Even if they get rid of all those devices, what will they do about the small proportion of radioactive isotopes that occur naturally in their body? Like the Carbon 13 (?) that is used for carbon dating after an organism dies?
Oh, right... they probably don't believe in that stuff because it contradicts "intelligent design" theory... |
