I remember as a kid that you could go into a shoe store and have fun sticking your feet in an X-ray machine to laugh with friends and look at the bones in your feet. One friend got addicted to it and did it a lot. Now the X-ray technicians wear protective gear because we have learned that there is nothing funny about the power of X-rays.
I flashed back to this because some of us were in the break room waiting to use the microwave when it occurred to me, what if we find out 30 or 40 years from now that microwaves make your liver fall out.
