Well, if you did learn something, that's a good thing. I suspect that you're just trying to be sarcastic, though, and so I suggest you look at comparative health in areas of high natural radiation. Denver is mentioned in the WSJ article I linked to. Ramsar, Iran has still higher natural radiation, and no detectable adverse health effects have been discovered. Indeed, there are some claims that the natives of this area are healthier than those living in areas with "normal" background radiation levels.
