I sure wouldn't want to be around when he/she did it :
% units
464 units; 3569 bytes
you have: pound-c2
you want: megaton tnt
* 9.769081e+00
/ 1.023638e-01
%
So Maia would emit the equivalent energy of a 10 megaton explosion for each
pound of mass lost. Probably even as neutrinos the flux would lethal.
The things you learn from the 'units' command ....
