Hi Bob,

I think the standard answer is because of the ZPE. The particles in the nucleus 
are constantly in motion, and
occasionally that motion gives rise to a rearrangement of the particles that 
allows a radionuclide to decay.
IIRC, there is a fairly strong correlation between decay energy and half life 
(for a given type of decay).
Generally, the larger the decay energy, the shorter the half life.

However the point I was trying to make, was that if your method worked, then 
why doesn't it get used by radionuclides,
which instead appear to decay by particle emission &/or gamma radiation?
