Do they have to just have 1 head, 2 arms and 2 legs?  Too bad ;)

Actually, I'm not sure.  You will get some radiation in the x-ray
wavelength from a CRT.  Electron beams are so much fun.  The servers
shouldn't emit much radiation except for any intrinsic to the
components.  There are no electron accelerators in servers that I know
of.  As for the overlapping EM fields produced by the servers, I don't
know that they produce any long term mutations by themselves.  They
might even help you by redirecting the x-rays from the CRT.

Do you notice an aurora effect when you turn out the lights?

I've got a rather interesting question. I'm in an office in front of a
21
inch monitor with 2 racks of servers about 10 feet away from me. I'm
here
like 8 hours a day for the last 5 months. What's the average background
EM
radiation count in such a situation and is it dangerous?
I want more kids!
