Pumps' Perplexities

After some 50 years of being dormant, the atomic bomb or
a "dirty" bomb is now once again in focus......Since the
newer generations have been "dumbed down" by the
current education system - what has ever happened to
the Geiger counter?.......(Or officially the Geiger-Muller
counter.)......

I hate to tell you "youngin's" but back in High School, we
were allowed to perform experiments with the so called
Radiation Monitor.......Yep, Chemistry Class of 1953......
These experiments were performed when we did not have
to cower under the desks, as shown now in many TV
clips......

Just think back then the atom, mercury, lead, sulphur,
carbon and zinc where our "friend"......Today the kids,
and adults, are taught to fear them, result, the "fraidy-cat"
generation......Pumps
