"You know the half life of radioactive materials is *forever*, right?

Apparently they've never quite grasped what "half life" means. They probably think it's light years long.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

They probably think it's light years long.

Yeah, as opposed to a few parsecs.

Please, at least go with the Bellamy Brothers, "If I Said You Had a Beautiful Body, Would You Hold It Against Me?" If nothing else, they did it first.

ION, I just made nice pseudo-Shepherd's Pie for dinner, out of the pot roast I made yesterday. Is it weird that I'm not really interested in eating pot roast per se, but I'm all about the stuff you can do with the meat shreds?
