Radium dropping connections to argi

Hey Phillip,
radium() doesn't have a retry counter, it should keep trying every 5 seconds if threaded and every 1 second if
non-thread, and it should try forever.  I've recreated a problem where radium(), after the far side has gone
away a few times, it loses the connection, so I'm working this now.
