Radioluminescent Paint! - the history

Post by Richard Hull »

The above is a fascinating and highly detailed expose' on Radium dial paint by Paul Frame of ORNL who, with my friend, Bill Kolb, created the book "Living with radiation the first 100 years".

It is interesting to note that with just clocks and watches manufactured since 1902, an estimated 500 million radium based time piece items are out there. This doesn't include any other apps like aircraft and military dials and switches.

Fusion is the energy of the future....and it always will be
The more complex the idea put forward by the poor amateur, the more likely it will never see embodiment
