"Conan the Bacterium"

Great Nothing like leaving the population in the hands of science. Knowing what I know about how disease can evolve when exposed to radiation. I am not so sure this is a very good idea have a look at this.

no, no, no. radiation cant affect evoloution of a disease, except if you give low enough doeses (doesnt kill all the bacteria) you get bacteria that is more resistant, oh yes. but more resistant to RADIATION. which is primarily used for treating cancer. it doesnt force an overall evoloution in any other way than it;s radiation resiliency.
i cant remember what i was going to say. oh yea.
its kind of like the argument hand sanitizer gels cause more resistant bacteria. wrong. the gel contains alcohol among other killing agents, but the alcohol is enough alone. it ruptures the cells of the basteria, instant death. kind of like throwing hundreds of mice in an incinerator. will you end up with fire resistant mice?
