The likelihood is that the last roll of film you shot was on a plane before
you even bought it. Irradiating mail would kill many photographic businesses
and just force the perpetrators to use other methods. A small dose on a
single ATM keypad or train hand railing would harm many more people than the
current method of dispersion. Lets hope this irradiation nonsense stops
soon.
