Actually, it _is_ safe to be shot.  It depends upon caliber, distance,
projectile type, etc.  Just like radiation.

How can you reasonably sit in front of a CRT and write what you do.  Aren't
there Euro standards are EMI???

Only in certain parts.  WHere I live we have a _lot_ of uranium deposits,
hence the radon.  It is only a problem if you have a well-sealed basement,
and it's only a problem with enviro-whackos and similar subhumans.
