So if anyone wants to get their hands on some miracles, buy some bananas (K-40) or pick up some dust (U=238 and Th-232), or breath in air (C-12). Nucleur power plants are miracles factories (and the religious claim god creates miracles). It's a shame that they store the most miraculous goo away from the public. Unlike the holy water in catholic churches, this holy goo will actually burn your face off.

They have evidence that it behaves randomly. The randomaness has a distribution (exponential) but no matter what you tweek, you cannot predict when a specific nucleus will decay.
