Glowing Rock

[DV8 2XL]

How big was this rock?

Why, pray tell, did they sit on it?

[Nevermore]

I don't know how big it was, and they sat on it because it was somthing to sit on.

If you are in the basement working on something, you would want to sit down.

So it must have been pretty large to be used as a chair...

Radium???

That's a good point, back in the 40's and 50's people used to paint the dials of watches with radium....maybe someone painted a rock.

 

Also, basements can have radon, which is radioactive and known to cause lung cancer.
