You need not be conscious or even alive when you take your last breath though.

[suityou01]

obviously being pedantic you will always get a chance to breath your last

it will be the one you take just before you get vaporised

fair point, well presented

But back on topic (kinda) we may not get the chance to breath our last. We could all be vaporised.

Why? It's not as if you're going to remember it and a heart-attack can be quite painful.

Quietly in your sleep would be more preferable.[/QUOTE]

That is something nurses say to keep families happy. I don’t think that is possible unless you are knocked out by drugs. At some point in the dying process you will need to take your last breath; that action will wake you up because the reflex action by your body will be so intense and painful.

So, you've died have you?

I'll start calling you Lazarus!

Not true. You will simply take fewer and fewer breaths untill you finally take the one that turns out to be your last. I know, I've watched it happen.

Different to my experience then.

I don't think nuclear decay can create something further down the periodic table, and uranium is the start point so everything is down from there.

Nit-picking, the principle is sound.

Yep, my mistake

Iodine-135 is an isotope that arises as a fission product of Uranium-235; the decay chain from there is Xenon-135, Caesium-135, and finally Barium-135 which is stable.

1 gun and 1 bullet will do for me.

Those atoms will then decay further into isotopes of elements such as uranium (which is probably what it started as)

Working on another one of those at the moment.

Is this a sideline you've got? Don't you teach or something?

Will it do Alpha, Beta and Gamma?

Drug induced sex heart attack is preferable.
