I know most people won't care, but I wish they (the publisher, not the Dice Tower) didn't neglect her Polish heritage. Her full name is Marie Curie Skłodowska. Just because westerners don't bother remembering and pronouncing her Polish surname doesn't mean they should have erased it from the name of the game. (a tiny note in the rulebook saying that she was "born as Marie Skłodowska" is not enough)
'the radium girls' is also another legendary tale of human folly after these discoveries.
Calling out in transit!!!

Truth will always be truth, regardless of lack of understanding, disbelief or ignorance.

Non-westerners call her Marie Curie :)
History also glossed over the fact that it was Polish cryptographers that broke the back of the Lorenz cipher (aka Enigma).
