Corrected entry: Shortly after Picard realises that he feels younger, he has a meeting with Anij, his male friend, and the young boy. Picard jokes that the boy must be 78, and he responds that he is twelve. The boy's father then says the radiation won't affect him until he's quite a bit older. Yet earlier, when our heroes first beam down, the children are playing with 'remarkable' dexterity and coordination, which could only be the result of exposure to the radiation.

Correction: The father's referring only to the effect on the boy's aging; that is, the aging won't start to slow until the boy hits puberty. There's no possible way for radiation NOT to affect people in the vicinity, so the children's coordination, etc, *would* be affected.
