10,930. WHEN THOSE GAMELAN BELLS START RINGING

WHEN THOSE GAMELAN 
BELLS START RINGING
Without proper placement they're just
noise  -  then they sent the Radon guy
to my house. Boy, that scam came and 
went. I can remember, in the late 80's,
every other fool coming in for printing
was some getting-started schmuck with
a Radon Company Inspection scheme.
They wanted like a hundred and seventy
bucks, for starters, to 'inspect' your 
basement for 'dangerous, illicit, radon 
seepage.' I said to the guy, 'Well, what
is it you're selling?' He said 'nothing, 
really. We scan and read the basement 
air. Kind'a trying to end up scaring 
people. So then they pay us to seal 
the walls. The real thing is, it's only 
now, as they've started building
people's houses on old garbage dumps
and places like that, that it happens.
90% of old houses, already in place, 
have nothing to worry about. They
were built on clean soils. But we
don't make mention of that.
