[quote=infiniteawesome]hmm, can you provide a source? if so, I can edit my paper.[/quote]
I can give you a scientific reason why it's not radioactive but I can't find a source for you.
Radioactivity comes in three forms:
1. Alpha decay. This is when the nucleus emmits a helium atom [2 protons, 2 neutrons]. Tobacco is stable, it does not need to emmit a lot of protons and neutrons to become more stable. Coupled with the fact that tobacco does not have any large molecules in it, Alpha decay would be impossible.
2. Beta decay. This is when a proton changes to a neutron plus a positron plus a neutrino. Tobacco does not need to lose protons as it is stable.
3. Gamma radioation. This is high energy waves. You can't create these without a LOT of energy. 200C ain't gonna cut it. You need a fuck load of energy, somewhere in the reigon of 15MeV. Your bic can't provide that.
