Jeroen, I've been working with sources for about 20 years. I've been a
Radiation Safety Officer. I may be mistaken, but I honestly feel I know more
than the average person about the subject. But, before I spend more time on
careful answers that gets met with a quick off-the-cuff response, let me ask
one question.
Are you interested in a serious answer based in science, or are you asking a
rhetorical question?
If its the former, I'll take the time to give a serious answer to that
question. If it is the latter, I'll let the question stand.
