Mmm, beta radiation is electrons emitted by radioactive decay, with high energy and high speed, which is why they’re dangerous. They are being wrong about static electricity rather than radioactivity.

I bow to your superior knowledge Badger. So this is a statically charged sheet?
I remember those from the 1960s. The combination of nylon sheets and nylon pyjamas could fry your nipples off.

A familiar, albeit not carcinogenic, experience (at least at the metaphorical level)

Of course, if you wanted a real electron boost for extra healthiness, you could plug it into the mains

Peruse the stuff they sell on Goop! Dvorak, and you'll be reassured that no margin of plausibility is necessary.

I'd look lovely in a hand tailored work suit in Biking Red  But probably not sophisticated.

“By Eddington's landmark veteran oak, Athena's apartment buildings are a welcoming gateway, a distinctive facade of crisp materials, full-height windows and a rhythm of recessed balconies, each building a contemporary palazzo.
And because apartment life should still involve outside space, each apartment in The Walton Building enjoys a private terrace or balcony. Architectural interest is added by a delicate 'inhabited bridge', inspired by the Bridge of Sighs, connecting two adjacent buildings at the first and second floor. The best of apartment living today, inspired by tomorrow's Cambridge.”

Inspired by tomorrow? A pre-emotive strike?
