The body can handle very low-level, constant radiation. This is self-evident as
radiation exists pretty much everywhere naturally -- at a very low level. That was my thought too- color CRTs are where

is why I mentioned black and white.
I am not overly concerned, someone in the IRC channel I'm in asked and I
thought I'd ping. Even then, in a color CRT without any lead shielding, I'd
bet the emissions pale in comparison to any kind of real medical X-ray.
Not a very good comparison because one is pointed at your head for months or years and
the latter is momentary.
