Claims must be filed in person.

P.S. please read the following disclaimer:
ACME and its agents is not responsible for persons or property left too close to the heater. [/QB]
But how much will it cost? Is it expensive? I only have a few hundred thousand in Minerals, Organics and Radioactives!

That's the beauty of this model - you can retofit your current Space Heater to be a Super-Nova Deluxe via our Nucleonic Disruption technology! Yes! For only 200K minerals, prepaid.

Worried that one of your enem, Err, neighbors are too cold? Send THEM a Super-Nova Deluxe upgrade! And make sure they NEVER have heating worries again...

And, for only an additional 50K, we can include
a cloaking device to make it that 'suprise gift' you are just dying to give them!

From physics, a blackbody at 37 degrees C will radiate about 500 W/m2

If you take the surface area of a body as about 2m2, that means you're losing 1000 J/s.

Take your weight in KG, and your body temprature should drop about one degree in (your weight in KG here) seconds.

For the non-metric among us: 1 KG = 2.205 pounds.

Yes, sign me up for this exiting opportunity with the bonus cloaking device and send it to Master Belisarius, please!

I still think this is the best idea so far.
