Talk:Thallium

Reaction with water

The page currently states that the metal reacts with water to form thallium "hydride". This seems very unlikely to me. Perhaps it should say "hydroxide" instead?

Picture causes break in text.

Implications of this real life story.

A nurse was stopped at the border by anti-terroist measures when his car and his body was found to have high levels of Thallium...suspected as a terroist weapon.

It was later determined that the nurse had been given a mistakenly high level of Thallium for a heart stress test resulting in high readings of Thallium.

The good news, is that this nurse was complaining of numbness in his legs for weeks and was seeking medical attention for the symptoms.

The anti=terroist procedure at the border solved his problem.
