Dave, I wonder why you think the Miller, McClain study sings a different 
tune. To be sure, questions always remain in some quarters, but the 
study states:

 "... Although no conclusive epidemiologic data have correlated DU 
exposure to specific health effects, studies using cultured cells and 
laboratory rodents continue to suggest the possibility of leukemogenic, 
genetic, reproductive, and neurological effects from chronic exposure. ..."

Best,
