Not just alpha particles.  Gamma from the radioactive RPI JEC bricks, too.
That's why the CII's tiles cracked... and the library's sinking... and
the JEC's bending... and West Hall is sliding down the hill... and why
student protestors cut one of its cables... and why the computer center
is a desanctified church.  It even ensured that the DAKA fish I ate
every Friday was square at lunch, but triangular at dinner.
