Seico vs. Luminox illumination. Guess who.

There's two options, both are 20 plus years old and have been in the same box together for at least two years.

If you have a chance, read the book "radium girls". It is messed up, but a salient piece of history,


Seiko FTW

I know all about it. I'm not sure the book is necessary.
But you win. that old radioactive paint is rad as fuck.

I was once really into photography, actually paid the bills for a while. I had a radioactive lens dust remover. Moths ate all the radioactive material. I sometimes wonder if there is a super-breed of radioactive moths because of me.

I wonder if they were attracted to the radiation like they are to light.

That's really intense. Pisses me off that we are top of the food chain, and moths can probably see isotopic emissions, and their brain is the size of, like, a grain of sand.

I would easily trade my baby toes for that ability.

It's more about the sensor than the processor. I bet their eyes and antennae play a larger role than their brain,
