+HOWTO build an Americium 241 driven random number generator
+===========================================================
+
+As a showcase I'll demonstrate the creation of my device below.
+You'll need a couple of things to build an Americium 241 driven random number generator (rng).
+
+###First things first though
+
+**[Americium 241](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Americium) is NOT A TOY!**
+It's a transuranic radioactive chemical element. Respect working with it:
+
+- Do not swallow it
+- Don't wear it on your body
+- Avoid touching it
+- At best work in a safe environment (like a lab)
+- Do not eat while working with it
+- Keep in a closed steel or aluminium container, when not working with it
+
+This being said, **I am not** responsible for any harm inflicted on you due to mal-handling of Americium 241!
+Don't be a fool, work responsibly!
+
+###Materials

+####Americium 241
+If you're living in the Americas, you'll most likely still have [ionization smoke detectors](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Americium#Ionization_detectors) around. For (mostly) everyone else, there's the possibility of ordering Americium on ebay!
+As I live in Germany I opted for the second option (ionization detectors are not used in private households anymore). My sample came in a nice and useful shape:
