I suppose it might have something to do with the fact, that Hitler killed a bunch of Brits, a lot of Jews and not very many Indians...

Yeppers, radioactive toothpaste.  And you are correct, this was not a good idea.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Did you know, if you drink 1400 bottles of this, your jaw will fall off, holes will form in your skull, your brain will abscess, you will get several metastasizing varieties of cancer at the same time, and you will die in agony ??

And then you will be buried in a lead lined coffin, and get a little write up on Wikipedia in about 80 years.

Oh, it's real all right.

Remember the watch dial painters who all died ??  

That wasn't the only foolish thing they did with radium back in the day.
