Radiation Safety Training

While typing up my Top Ten MP3s list, I was pretending to do my online radiation safety training. I found this interesting piece of information that I'd like to share with you all:

No. of Days your life expectancy will be decreased / Hazard
3500 days / Being unmarried male
1600 days / Being unmarried female
500 days / Being 20% overweight
210 days / Increase food intake 100 cal/day
130 days / Alcohol (US average)
41 days / Drowning
40 days / Job with radiation exposure of 500 mrem/year

Conclusion: A job with radiation exposure is not hazardous. Second conclusion: Don't be an unmarried male.
