Poisons are everywhere, in our soil in our rain in our air. Simply boycotting wont do anything. We have to educate others to make a difference. Good luck.

Interesting. It was from an old sports academy or gymnasium or something. I doubt it was anywhere near chernobyl but the thought did cross me and my brothers mind! I'm thinking that even if it was radioactive, it would probably be less than a microwave or cellular phone or something.
These are different types of radiation. Microwave and cell phones radiate electromagnet radiation i.e. radio waves. Radio waves may affect tissue by heating. The type of radiation emitted by radioactive material is called Ionizing Radiation. Ionizing Radiation has enough energy to strip electrons from atoms. Ionizing Radiation from the decay of radioactive materials emits sub atomic particles that depending on the type of particle can penetrate tissue and cause damage.

You would need to get a geiger counter to investigate this scientifically.
