    I see. Well, all I can say is :eat plenty of vitamines and veggies, to prevent damage from accumulating.

      Machines using humans in order to work... hmmm


      The Matrix!
      I will never understand why some people on Apolyton find you so clever. You're predictable, mundane, and a google-whore and the most observant of us all know this. Your battles of "wits" rely on obscurity and whenever you fail to find something sufficiently obscure, like this, you just act like a 5 year old. Congratulations, molly.

        I gnawed it off at the elbow. It was pretty tasty - like microwaved chicken.

            Don't be silly. The radiation fields most certainly aren't ionizing (their frequency is way too low for that).

            It's not like I'm peering into the X-ray diffraction machine while it's running...

              Anyway, electronics are more sensitive than people. If the computer's still running then things are okay. They're like high-tech canaries...

                It's the hype, I am telling you, the stupid, ignorant hype that got me.

                  On the plus side, I'd never thought about radioactively tagged cholesterol before now...

                        That sounds possible. They needed radar strong enough to burn through interference. It could easily be putting out 10 (?) kilowatt-range radiation. Depending on the frequency you might absorb a large percentage of that, which would be enough to burn you up pretty bad.

                            god, the ignorance of electromagnetic radiation and their health effects is astounding.

                              Then please correct our ignorance and explain it.

                                Maybe it'll be like the way the marketing department changed the name of NMR(nuclear magnetic resonance) to MRI(magnetic resonance imagery) so people wouldn't be scared to undergo the process.

                                Most people in America say 'nuke-you-ler' anyway, so it probably didn't make a difference in the long run.

                                Screw this, I'll take my chances on cigarettes. I mean, if cigarettes came in a black pack, with a skull and a crossbones on the cover, called Tumors, smokers would still be lining up around the corner to buy some.
