The <br /> scientific evidence clearly shows that a gamma ray <br /> which is strong enough to kill fruit fly and fungus <br /> infestation on a papaya will produce the <br /> photo nuclear effect which yields radioactive <br /> isotopes of carbon. These effects are present since <br /> the effects of the radiation are observable both <br /> above and below the energy level of irradiation due <br /> to quantum uncertainty. All living things contain a <br /> substantial percentage of carbon atoms as well as <br /> other elements. A radioactive isotope of carbon. has <br /> a half-life of 14 thousand years. These effects are <br /> due to the principle of quantum uncertainty. <br /> a~ n~ <br /> Ref. tot Pa•Rsented F-~-- <br /> gtat. Date .APR 2 <br /> q- <br /> <br />
