Del,
Hard to believe the person is actually handling the stuff without any
protection.

I also removed my 241am laced radioactive smoke detectors and replaced them
with harmless photoelectric ones. This was after I purchased an instrument to
measure the emissions from them, and discovered they had a fairly good plume
coming off them. Of course they say "It's not enough to be harmful" to
everyone, but they are also banking on the fact that most people will never
purchase instruments to check them.
