That's about where I classify this sort of thing. If they tested every
square inch of our little worlds we would find that there is no place safe.
Those that are turned to jelly from something like this will find some other

of different radiations.)

from a countertop, it is my duty to inform the client.
The same way as I do when I strongly suggest the use of an acrylic
based product over a polyester based countertop.

At the same time, I don't think that the owners of granite are going
to give birth to three-headed lizards.
