I've having some difficulty arguing against an particularly dense creationist in how other sciences such as chemistry, geology, astronomy (indirectly) and physics all support evolution.
Can anyone name any particular examples of where sciences that support evolution are used in an practical way?
I already have the geology for finding natural gas and oil and its relation to ancient flora, but I need more examples.

I was thinking more along the lines of radioactivity and nuclear power plants.

Thank you, exactly what I wanted.
I just want to be able to drop an mountain of real world applications that have the same techniques and sciences that are used in evolution. I'm sick and tired of creationists claiming that evolution isn't supported by other science.
By showing examples of the same methods used in practical real world applications and in evolution, it's lights out for them.
