I worked for a bit over a year at IITRI (Illinois Institute of Technology Research Institute) in Chicago.

My office was located in the basement of the same building as the first industrial nuclear reactor. I used to go over and look at where it was. Yep, a few of the lead bricks that lined the housing of the reactor (that were't too hot) were still scattered around the campus.

Now, ya all know why I am the way I am - and here all along you thought it was because of my 20 years researching experimental pesticides -

You licked the lead blocks?
