LOL. This is not the reason why skin gets older. This is a Kent Hovind Theory. You are probably right. But as a LOL hater I find your reaction totally overdosed. I mean, you state that you lough oud loud just because somebody wrote something you dont agree with. I try to imagine how you start a frantic loughing sitting on your chair in front of your PC, like a crazy guy. I personally dont use LOL at all. First of all the reader will get the impression you are a kid and later it leads to misinterpretation just because a healthy personality would not start to laugh oud loud in real life only because some other person has another meaning. This is not like adult people behave, but I remember that we acted that way as school kids. This is not a personal attack, I just want to help to show how this can lead to to a wrong interpretation of what you want to say.

However, an overdose of radiation can and will raise the possibility of an outbreak of cancer and cause changes in your blood. Sorry about nitpicking - it could be one tiny particle that force a cell to mutate. (As Iīve said, statistically speaking). So the natural radiation isnīt harmless either.

Afaik that's highly simplified though. You have mutations all the time. Our body has means to correct such mutated cells. It's just no 100% safe system and if it gets overwhelmed it won't be able to eat up a "bigger" tumor... Radiation always was there and always will be there. It's just about not getting exposed to too much for our body to handle. But ok - even then it's no 100% guaranteed protection (but oh well in a world where we breathe and eat toxic stuff all the time it's not use getting hysterical over radiation) and one of course might argue where the line between an accetable and a too high dose rate should be drawn...

As far as I know even a high dosis isn't lethal per say. But the higher the energy the radiation is transmitting, the more likely you'll die.
I don't think there is any radiation that you can call "safe". No, the sun isn't "safe". But maybe there's a level at which you can say it's "no more than usual".
Either way I'll be happy without Nuclear power.

This is not a personal attack, I just want to help to show how this can lead to to a wrong interpretation of what you want to say. Sorry about the "LOL". But I didn't write it just because I disagree, but because this is exactly the same as Kent Hovind said, who has been ridiculed on Youtube for that and other things. I personally don't interpret "lol" as actual laughing anymore. It is used so often that it only means something like "that was a bit funny" for me. To really express that you actually laughed you have to use "rofl" or "lmao" imho. I didn't want to attack you either.
