I do beleive it means our hands are slightly radioactiveQuote:

Just like the radon gas in my basement...Quote:

So, that was what those little glow-in-the-dark furry things were that I was shooting last night...you have cats, don't you? :p
The Fog :rastasmoke:
not any more
you bastard
Ok, I think I understand? Our hands give of radiant heat right? Like the oven. Our body generates heat by means of chemical reaction. Large surface areas transfer more heat so our hands would be a good conductor of radiant heat.
Is that what they're talking about here. Is that what UPE is?
This article isn't very in-depth.
Also, this isn't atomic radiation. Just radiation.
I wasnt talking about radon :)Quote:

Hehehehe! Sorry I posted the link quickly before I went to bed last night, here's some more info.

Sept. 6, 2005 â?? Human hands glow, but fingernails release the most light, according to a recent study that found all parts of the hand emit detectable levels of light.
The findings support prior research that suggested most living things, including plants, release light. Since disease and illness appear to affect the strength and pattern of the glow, the discovery might lead to less-invasive ways of diagnosing patients.
Mitsuo Hiramatsu, a scientist at the Central Research Laboratory at Hamamatsu Photonics in Japan, who led the research, told Discovery News that the hands are not the only parts of the body that shine light by releasing photons, or tiny, energized increments of light.
"Not only the hands, but also the forehead and bottoms of our feet emit photons," Hiramatsu said, and added that in terms of hands "the presence of photons means that our hands are producing light all of the time."
The light is invisible to the naked eye, so Hiramatsu and his team used a powerful photon counter to "see"it.

So, apparently this is from a group of Koreans trying to link skin ultraweak photon emissions to traditional Chinese conception of acupuncture, the Biomedical Physics Laboratory for Korean Medicine (incidentally one may wonder why these guys are linking their research on biophotons to Chinese-derived traditional Korean medicine [mostly acupuncture] rather than to the -largely female- shamanic tradition which, albeit somewhat folklorized, is still living in S. Korea? :stoned: ).
