If you were exposed to radiation in a freak accident, and you could choose which superpower oyu wanted, which one would it be? And, "all of the above" is not an option.

The ability not to die from radiation poisoning. :P

Seriously: I'd probably go for mind-reading. Always seeing things from my point of veiw is such a limited perspective.

I would like the ability to send a message to myself in the past. Once a month would suffice. That way I could rectify stupid mistakes. Id probably end up abusing the power though.

So if I had to pick a more conventional power, teleportatoin would be cool.

Bah. Go for telepathy. Not only does it have practical use, but if you can get a version that doesn't require line-of-sight, you can look through her eyes while she is in the shower. :twisted:

Not that I would ever do such a thing, of course. *smiles innocently*

Telekinesis. Very strong, very fine telekinesis. Think about it: you can use it as a sense, like touch, except it won't be blocked by objects the way a hand would, and you can open virtually anything, plus all kinds of other possiblities.

I voted for "The ability to predict the future". It would help me pick stocks, and change my mistakes before they happen.

I went with flying. Not the most practical of the superpowers, or even the most fun, but I've always wanted to be able to fly on my own. Just soaring above it all, slipping the surly bonds of earth...

Telekinesis, mind control or the ability to see the future. In that order of preferance.
