Cool. I knew that beryllium was "transparent" to x-rays, but wasn't aware of the neutron capture aspects. Thanks!

Thanks. I thought that was the case; I'm wondering now how they do detect it.

Quibble-alert: Technically, they're unstable atoms, not molecules, that are breaking down and emitting particles and energy. Also, are Geiger counters good at picking up neutron emissions?

Fluoridation in the water.

Awesome news! Hope it's a hit. :)

I'm a web developer by day and was a cartoonist by night; I used to do a cartoon strip called "Cloning Around." People with a low tolerance for puns were advised by their medical professionals to not read the contents.

I would gladly watch a well-written show based around her character.

Reminds me of what happened to the victims of a monster in a horror movie that scared the heck out of me as a kid.

ARGH. Curse you, YouTube!!! "Embedding disabled by request. Watch on YouTube"

A Joss Whedon Kitty Pryde movie? Color me sold!

Thank you for this one. It confirms my childhood phobia of all things dental :)
