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

[Perry Sandeen]

Hui and all,
 
You have absolutely NOTHING to fear.  Here is why:
 
If in the USA it was found that it MIGHT possibly
hurt something on the endangered species list [Humans might count also in some
situations.]  The following would happen.
 
1.  A Transportation
Security Agency [1.6 Billion bullets and counting] heavily armed and masked SWAT
team would appear at Rb owners houses.  They know where we are thanks to NSA wire taps and the fact that every
piece of mail in the US mail system is photocopied on each side and stored.
 
2.  The
rubidiums would be seized. Next:
 
    A. The
owner would be fined for having an unregistered WMD.
 
   B.  The owners name would go on a WMD offenders
list.  Offenders would have to report to
the police wherever they live and would be barred from contact of anyone below
the age of 18 and could not reside within one mile of a school.
 
3.  The
administration branch of our US government would declare that: The War On
Dangerous Rb’s Has Been Won and the US citizens are now safer.
 
4.  Bonus’s
will be awarded.
 
5.  Congressional
oversight committees will ask the TSA what has been done with seized
rubidiums.  The TSA will not tell
congress who authorized the seizer and where the Rubidiums are.  Any TSA leaders subpoenaed will take the 5th amendment.  Congress will get really,
really mad and stop their feet.  Nothing
more will happen.  It will fade away as
the administration spokesman will say: “It is old news and really doesn’t
matter compared to what I tell you today”.
 
6.  Magically, as no one knows anything, the Rubidiums will end up in a
third world country without environmental law to be salvaged and the sold to
mainland China.
 
See, it really is simple.
 
Regards,
 
Perrier
