test fit, #radium fuel rail, 1.6L, stock intake, damper and regulator with guage on.

ooo she is a tight one, but with the lifting lug removed and the ground relocated, rotating the wire loom - it does fit.

Little break ... then see if she leaks fuel everywhere!

Radium Baths America's Newest Ecstasy

@fourmiune Oh, and of course, radium water before that. The heath benefits are just as flawed as the #nuclear #hormesis theory!

"In 1898, Marie and Pierre Curie made a huge discovery. While studying uraninte, a radioactive mineral high in uranium and ore, they managed to separate out several components. They eventually isolated radium itself and announced the find to the world. The scientific community was elated. This strange element didn’t follow the laws of physics. People immediately hoped to find a medicinal purpose for radium. An experiment in 1911 on horses raised the possibility that radium had anti-aging properties. In 1913, newspaper announced the creation of 'radium water,' which was brewed by pouring water into a container with radium.

"Once this water was released to the public, it took off. RadiThor was especially popular in the 1920’s, when people could buy a 1-ounce bottle for $1. Now, that’s over $15, but customers were eager to reap the proclaimed health benefits. Doctors started prescribing it for everything from high blood pressure to arthritis to sexual impotence. It remained popular for years and radium started appearing in other products. You could even find #toothpaste made from #radium and #thorium. The creator reasoned that since radium glowed in the dark, it could make one’s teeth shine, too. The element even ended up in #chocolate and #bread. Why were people so happy to ingest something we know now is so toxic?

"For one thing, people weren’t totally ignorant about radium’s dangers. In plants where the substance was handled, workers knew to wear lead aprons and other safety equipment, but that was pure radium. The amount of radium in products like Radium Water was very small. Also, when ingested, radium can initially cause the appearance of better health thanks to its stimulation of red blood cells. However, as people would soon realize, even a teeny-tiny amount of radium could do incredible damage over time..."

A question for a very neiche type of nerd...

What are the likely consequences of spending your childhood sleeping in a bed with a radium light switch on the bed head?

It was a small plastic switch close to the pillow. I think the radium was in the plastic, not painted on it outside.

Let's see... phosphogypsum.. what does the EPA say? "The waste that is left behind is called phosphogypsum. Most of the naturally-occurring uranium, thorium and radium found in phosphate rock ends up in this waste. " #uranium #radium #thorium https://www.epa.gov/radtown/radioactive-material-fertilizer-production

Hmm, maybe I should avoid old alarm #clocks with #radium dials. (radium-226, anyone? Only a half life of about 1000 years...) https://www.kensclockclinic.com/vintage-clocks-and-radium-risks/

Nicht neu, aber vom Prinzip her gesehen, aktuell; der Mensch ist manchmal seltsam naiv:
Neben radioaktiven Medikamenten und Hautcremes waren strahlende Produkte vom Atomlabor für Kinder über Radium-Schokolade bis zur Atom-Limonade und Radiumwasser beliebt.

‘As chemist Christina Digiulio approached the pumping station near Chester, “My Geiger counter started going crazy…” ’

The industry has tried to conceal it, but #fracking brings both #radium and #radon up to the surface. To the long list of known health and environmental hazards for humans, pets, and wildlife — which government and the industry try to minimize — we can now add Digulio's evidence that the #radioactivity problem is an enormous hazard.
