I never saw one and even if I did I cannot judge seals. But Mike was of the opinion the seals were inadequate, the devices were dangerous, and the reason the radioactivity was decreasing was because the radioactive material was escaping. He may have actually used the word "spew" -- no doubt hyperbole. You would have to ask him for details. I have seen a number of dangerous and poorly done experiments. Even when every precaution is taken, experiments can be dangerous. No one knows that better than McKubre. - Jed
