[ RadSafe ] " Technology to detect radiation has progressed "

[Steven Dapra]

Aug. 18

         I should think this would be intimidating.  Youi're trying to 
watch a baseball game and all of a sudden a bunch of gorillas packing heat 
are standing over you asking  nosy personal question.  In this age of 
post-Sept. 11 paranoia I doubt that the interrogators were very 
congenial.  I wonder if any of them have wives?
