That's so funny. You're saying there's no natural explanation for a natural phenomenon? Nuclear fission goes on all the time in a variety of elements, some of them quite light even. In fact, the Earth is not a solid mass of rock in part because of the heat generated by natural fission processes.

But if you mean to say there is no natural cause for nuclear fission explosions on the kiloton scale and above, then you'd be right.

Yes, I was talking about the man-made reactions I was referring to in the prior sentence, not *all* fission.

"In my own case, when it seemed to me after a long illness that death was close at hand, I found no little solace in playing constantly at dice." -- Girolamo Cardano, 1563
