[time-nuts] How dangerous if Rb lamp broken?

[MailLists]

In those tough times, since the General Electric reactors melted down at 
Fukushima, and still spewing lots of radiation after more than two 
years, a radioactive particle detector is a must have - at least for 
gamma radiation.
As for beta particles, you can try visual detection. If you don't see 
the blue glow in dielectrics (aka Cherenkov radiation) there's still 
some hope...
