A glass of single-malt whiskey will often register a little higher. The brick walls of a masonry house will register around the same as you, sometimes more.

In 20,000 years the decaying K-40 (radioactive potassium) inside you will have have damaged your DNA so much that you won't survive when you wake up. Best, Wolf K. |
