    Mark,

      Please consult the encyclopeedia during a full moon. Then locate
    an old infinity pin and conect it up to a medupeoloid radiator. =
Afterwards
    get a cluck cluck sauce cookie from someones mama and take your =
uranium balls to the vet.

      xoxoxo, MC

      Hello All,

      My trinite will just barely moves my gigacounter....barely. The =
uranium balls I have (and will soon be selling) move it more. My =
furniture does not move the gigacounter (nor does any of meteorites or =
anything else I could find in my house. =20

classes in the early 80's when everybody was still kinda worried about =
Russia nuking the US. They used these heavy lead boxes to store small =
radioactive things in. =20

      Also I do not believe, or see how, tin foil would stop a gamma =
ray or alpha ray..
