[meteorite-list] Panspermia and Mars back contamination

[Galactic Stone & Ironworks]

All kidding aside - I had a customer tell me once, that many years
ago, back in the 1950s when he was a kid, he got his hands on some
trinitite and proceeded to eat a piece of it.  He thought he might
acquire super powers - like the comic books said at that time.  After
some back and forth, I determined that he was dead serious and wasn't
yanking my chain.  I asked him how much he ate and he says it was a
small amount.

I cannot help but wonder if : he developed any super powers, or if he
has a case of some rare abdominal cancer brewing up and waiting to
rear it's ugly head.

Needless to say, I strongly advise against consuming trinitite.
Besides, the mutations it bestows are random, so you might end up with
superhuman fingernail growth instead of telekinesis - in addition to
the weird obscure cancers. ;)

Best regards,

MikeG
