  1. Listen--my college had its own neutron source that they'd pull out of storage for a few labs a year. Giant vat of literal plutonium. Before pulling it out, my physics professor would warn us all that we were about to work with some extremely dangerous material--the LEAD BRICKS we were using for shielding. I can pretty much guarantee that those uranium kits exposed kids to less ionizing radiation than a cross-country flight, and I am seriously envious of any kid who got to experience a cloud chamber before they experienced puberty.
