True, but if the radiation were really high water would boil, IMHO.

Totally true. In fact there is not level of radiation that is 'safe' where
safe means it causes no damage. There are govt approved levels that are
'safe' just b/c people recognize the need that we want to have the
benefits of things that will definately give off 'some' radiation.

I wonder if microwaves cause mutations. I bet it does.

I'm sure that Gabriel or some other engineering type at a uni can get a
gieger counter and check this. Or am I confused? Would this work?
