Colorado | radiation

If you've been to an airport lately, or if you've just been reading a newspaper, you probably have heard about the full-body scanners installed at some U.S. airports and the ensuing debate over privacy and safety.

But you probably haven't heard about anti-scanner underwear.

You read that right. An entrepreneurial Colorado man has developed underwear and bras that have tungsten placed in, um, sensitive areas. The tungsten acts to block both X-rays and radiation.

No word on when, or if, the thong version will be available.
