         This was forwarded by Roger.  (I have made some non-substantive 
edits.)

         Someone sent him an e-mail with six citations about research on U 
as a heavy metal.  As noted below, five of the citations are about the same 
researchers and the same paper.  Apparently if you say so enough times the 
saying will make DU radiologically harmful as a munition --- or something 
like that.
