The bug was, no doubt, sent her by its father, Jurel.

It was an attempt at a joke. Cobalt Thorium G is from Dr. Strangelove.

I was gently trying to lead him to see the stupidity of his position.

Okay, on the basis of the argument of space rather than the stated scope of the experiment, I accept you are probably right about the regrowth. Having said that, you are acting like an ass and I think it is unnecessary.

And on Earth it would take between a million and a hundred million years to accumulate each dose

Unless a colony of the bacteria happened to grow next to a natural pocket of uranium/thorium ore.

If I want sensationalistic hyperbole, I'll pick up the Weekly World News.

I'm a (Biblical!) creationist, and I have no problems with evolution.

Consevatism and evolution are opposites!

You will someday have to make a realization---decision!

Huh ? Ever wonder why so many species of marsupial animals flourished in Australia ? Except for possums they became virtually extinct everywhere else. One possible explanation is that the hole in the Ozone layer is not as new as the enviro-wackos would have everyone believe.
