    Why not, the radiation is probably less than on a tube with 50 mobile phone with 10 feet of you.

      Not armed eh?

        The first jobs inside Chernobyl was done for free - people were just given shovels...

          I would apply but I don't have the security clearance.
          Numbly tolerating the inequality as a way to achieve greater prosperity for all.

                  All the configuration managers I've known have been heavily armed. It's the only way to deal with the end-users.

                    At that rate I'd apply like a shot - Most of the area is as safe as houses.

                    Well fairly safe outside - the insides of houses are the parts that still aren't.
