[ RadSafe ] Re: Which other countries are not having access to NRC website?

[Cindy Bloom]

As noted before, I'm in the USA and have been having the problem 
intermittently.  The URL that I  sent to Radsafe before was to show others 
the link to the error message where I was redirected.  I could not get to 
any of the other menu options (such as Contact Web Site Staff) from 
there.  Right now, I can get to NRC's  web site.  Odd.
