On the other hand, I would very much like one. Just because — for much the same reason I have a home-made temperature logger, random pieces from a decommissioned optical bench, a couple of partial robots, the head of a film enlarger (needs a lightsource and a stand), a self-built (but crappy) camera shutter speed measuring device and lots of other junk.

I want one not because I actually worry about radiation, but because I’m a bit of a geek. I bet I’m far from the only one.
