They couldn't possibly have failed to identify all of the counterfeit parts; and even if they miss some they would have failed by now, right?

I've heard right here how it would be just like getting a suntan or eating a couple of bananas - some of them even tell me that maybe radiation is good for us (helps clean out the genetic riffraff I suppose).
