    Seems like a big headline for a relativly small story but I like the chilean solution hose them down on the ship and I bet the capt will pump the bilge out as soon as he leaves port

    Just what we need on our roads, not only do we have overly bright HID headlamps, fog-lights on every night, now we'll have cars that glow in the dark!

    You won't find me on: faceplant; Scipe; Infragam; LumpedIn; ShapCnat or Twitting. I'm just not that interesting.

    You may laugh .. ...

    The UK government is concerned about the level of radioactivity given off by the old style gauges when had radio active material painted on them so they glowed in the dark.

    H&S say this is a danger and they should all be collected up and put into a secure storage facility due to the danger to anyone exposed to the radioactivity.

    Had a serious conversation where the person concerned said that you only had to look at all the ex RAF pilots from WW2. They are losing their hair and have joint problems which in his opinion were a result of their exposure to the radio active paint on the aircraft gauges...... Sad thing is he was serious.

    Not to mention that those same RAF pilots would all be somewhere between 79-93 years of age but, then this fellow was/is probably paid highly for such tripe
