Uranium...

[idNut]

I'm presenting a speech on Uranium tomorrow morning and I don't really have any interesting facts or anything that'll really get the attention of the audience. If you could, please list what you know about Uranium or what you think would make this interesting.

Interesting Facts About Wyoming Uranium

my favorite is

Since the first production, Wyoming mines have produced 193 million pounds of U3O8 The energy contained in one pound of uranium is equivalent to 31 barrels of fuel oil or 10 tons of coal; so the total energy produced from Wyoming uranium is equivalent to 5.9 billion barrels of fuel oil or 1.9 billion tons of Wyoming coal. Indeed, Wyoming leads the nation in uranium and coal production (present uranium production is totally from in situ facilities in the Powder River Basin.)

For your opening comment tell the audience that you have a chunk of highly radioactive Uranium in your pocket. That should get their attention.

I'll be like: "I have a chunk of highly radioactive Uranium in my pocket and I'll bring it out after I'm finished with my speech." I should get something that is somewhat related to Uranium so it's not a complete hoax.
