	Ever hear the tale of the guy trying to build a nuke? I dunno if it's true or 
not, but apparently some brainy physicist wanted to see if he could build a 
nuke. As the story goes, he collected the radioactive material from a bunch 
of smoke detectors and was assembling the bomb in a building in his yard. 
Then the authorities found out something was up, checked for radiation in the 
area and found it unacceptably high. Needless to say, when they found him 
they took all his nuke stuff. :) The guy guessed he took about 5 years off 
his life messing with the stuff.
