This is an interesting speculative article by Lorentz et. al. from 2002 about what might be found. They suggest that radiocarbon on Titan could significantly influence both atmospreric processes and surface contitions in a number of complex ways. Can anyone here tell me if we know anything more definite about this now, from Huygens data or otherwise?

Huygens did find a layer of increased conductivity, but that may be completely unrelated.
