Who wants slightly radioactive building blocks laced with arsenic and
other heavy metals?

All breeze blocks are slightly radioactive. Granite and coal are too,
more so.

There is also quite good, if circumstantial, evidence that slightly
raised
background radiation levels are good for human health.

That'll be why they done away with luminous waches and trimphones then?



That was done for the _fear_ of radiation - that doesn't prove there is
any danger.

That was done when it was realised that the effects of radiation are
cumulative.

Bull****.
