Gokuma Posted November 9, 2004 Damn it. They should have used a female model. BTW, this is very stupid because excessive exposure to X-Rays can cause cancer. 0 Share this post Link to post

Fredrik Posted November 11, 2004 I'm fine with it as long as they only use it on terrorists. 0 Share this post Link to post
Linguica Posted November 11, 2004 I was under the impression that terahertz imaging (T-rays) was the next big breakthrough in this sort of thing, not X-rays. 0 Share this post Link to post

Endureth Posted November 11, 2004 There are more people walking around airports you would not want to see naked then there are ones you would. Don't forget that :/ -E 0 Share this post Link to post
pilottobombadier Posted November 12, 2004 True enough. Either way, I don't want my jewels exposed to that level of radiation. 0 Share this post Link to post
Piezo Posted November 12, 2004 Dittohead said:Yeah, in the same way that using a cell phone or microwave does. I've heard that it takes five hundred x-ray exams to get radiation poisoning (or kill you?). I've also met a guy that told me he had a pet fish in a bowl on top of his microwave oven and it developed a tumor and died. I also have a 915MHz cordless phone and if I am talking on it and walk in front of the microwave oven while it is on the phone will almost completely cut out. That was a telltale sign that those microwaves were leaking out. Anyways, there's been no hard proof that mobile phones cause cancer, microwave ovens maybe, and x-rays definitely. 0 Share this post Link to post

Seriously, it's a universally known fact that excessive exposure to x-ray radiation can cause cancer. Why the hell would they do it anyways?

Fredrik Posted November 13, 2004 Maybe instead of X-ray radiation you could use light with very short wavelength? 0 Share this post Link to post
