There is no place where granular DU is available to play in like sand. There are sands that are are very radioactive. They could even find there way by accident to a sand box or playground. But children are far more likely to play in sand contaminated by lead and many other things.

My point as usual was illustrating Pearly_Button's ability to demonstrate the lack of clue.

Consider 800,000 children a year are estimated to die because water is not contaminated with DDT. How many children a year are estimated to die because of playing in granular DU sand???
