Does anyone know where I can get a glare screen that also blocks x-rays? I know these things exist, but I have no idea where I can find one. If you have any info., please e-mail me at cherkaue@cs.wisc.edu since I don't read this board regularly.

Actually we used to use lead glass (crystal to some of you) for the viewports into the reactor compartment for the nuclear reactors in the military. I'm not really sure that it's worth the effort for the miniscule amount of x-rays from a CRT. Sitting back another foot will probably work just as well. (Or use only a mono monitor if you are terribly worried.)
