Talk about coincidence - one of my daughter's summer intern jobs was with a smoke detector manufacturing company.
Me - "What do they have you doing this summer?"
She - "Oh, in the mornings I pull out this little radioactive thingie from the returned/scrapped detectors so they can dispose of the rest of the shell."
Me - "Are you still OK? Will I ever have grandkids, and will they be normal????"
22 years later with a darling 8 year old granddaughter - I guess the company was following OSHA safety rules.
