Borax and sand would effectively cap it anyway because it'll fuse in to silica glass from the heat as well as tying up any heavy elements within the glass structure. A bit like when you use it as a flux when you fire-assay precious metals.
I suppose there's a risk of it concentrating the heavy metals in one place under the glass though, increasing the criticality effect. I wonder if adding lead salts to the mix would have encouraged the heavies to form a less rich alloy. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink.

True, and while we have a good idea of the likely effect of high dose exposure (lots of data from the Japan bombings), the understanding of low to moderate doses isn't as well understood.
There's an assumption that the degree of harm is linear but it's probably the case of there being more of a sharp drop-off as dose decreases. There being a point at which the biological repair mechanisms cope with the damage. I remember seeing one study that looked at people who lived in high background radiation areas (like Aberdeen) and high exposure jobs (like airline pilots) and they didn't see a significantly higher rate of cancers in those populations. If I took a piece of Aberdeen granite into Sellafield, it would set off alarms. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen.

Yes, also do not forget that pyramids are on at least three continents (Africa, Asia, South America) and some of them with a plenty of similarities. I'm only talking about those pyramids that we found so far. Now, how's that possible? A pyramid sure is way too specific structure to be a pure coincidence. The builders either could do inter continental travel or maybe even could communicate with each other. The third alternative would be a much more advanced civilization telling the builders all over the world what a pyramid is and what shape should it be. Regardless of all that, it is odd that all those civilizations living so a apart from each other put special emphasis on the pyramid shape. Even when Egyptians ran out of money for more pyramids they still kept the shape in mind when building the King's valley. ____________________ '87 Honda XBR 500, '96 Kawasaki ZX7R P1, '90 Honda CB-1, '88 Kawasaki GPz550, MZ 150 ETZ

Or looking at it another way. A pyramid is just a pile with straight sides. If you make a big heap of rocks, you get a cone. If you make a slightly more controlled heap of stones using cut stones laid straight, you get a pyramid. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink.
