I wonder if that would be possible? I bet the government paperwork would
make the watches costs far out of reach for most people.

You're still here, but what about the young women who painted those watches
who aren't? The problem was that they needed sharp points on the brushes to
fill the tiny voids in the hands. So they twirled the brush tips between
their lips. They could probably bring back radium dials today with no
problem, because of automation.

I just tried calling your cell because you seem to be the "legitimate"
person to ask. I don't read all the time-nuts postings but has anyone
ever brought up the most logical aspect of ionizing radiation for the
group: the radium dial wrist watch? or are they all too young to have
experienced that? I think I got one for Christmas when I was 12 or 13.
I'm still here at 74!
