8/15    Do LCD monitors emit cancer-causing radiation like CRTs in the old
        days?  Wikipedia doesn't mention it.  Thx.
        \_ CRTs didn't emit cancer-causing radiation either.
           \_ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cathode_ray_tube#Ionizing_radiation
              "CRTs can emit a small amount of X-ray radiation ... The amount
              of radiation escaping the front of the monitor is widely
              considered unharmful."
              Oops.  Never mind.  In the old days I actually asked my employer
              to buy me a Polaroid grounded screen filter which supposedly
              filtered out the radiation on my 20" CRT.

        \_ mm, porndog
           \_ Very deep throat.  (See sign at background.)
        \_ The expression of the guy in the background really puts this one
           over the top.
