Goofs

When presenting Jessica Warren with an x-ray, Bones says that this is the only convenient way to add technetium to Jessica's collection, as technetium is an element of extremely short half-life. While this is true for some of the isotopes (as is the case of most radioactive elements), the Te-97 and Te-98 have a half-life of approximately 200.000 years, i.e. 10 times longer than that of the most stable radium isotope and 100 times longer than most stable isotope of polonium.
