I agree, and just want to emphasize, ALARA makes sense (or at least is a  
fair compromise for public policy purposes, since we can't really expect most of  
our politicians to really understand risk assessment) only so long as  we 
don't forget the importance of the "R."  REASONABLY achievable does  not equal 
technologically achievable (at any cost).
