[ RadSafe ] RE : Chernobyl Exclusion Zone Radioactive LongerThanExpected

[Syd H. Levine]

Do not fret about being labeled anything by Franz.  I personally wear my 
label as a badge of courage (being labeled as a troll by an elitist America 
hating European only means you are doing something right).

Please no to Franz as list moderator!  Just listening to his anti-American 
rants is bad enough.

One modest proposal is the list could be moved to Yahoo tech groups, and two 
or three moderators could be selected (preferably not European elitist 
types).  The advantage is that the infrastructure already exists and works 
well, so nobody would be burdened with the server problems.

Franz, maybe it is me, Supertroll, that you speak of.  I have no
publications...I am fresh out of college newly working in the radsafe
field.   My first boss was informative and enthusiastic and provided
encouraging support regarding work in the Health Physics industry.  I joined
this list after hearing him and colleagues discussing the interesting
topics.  That is known as positive reinforcement.  It works Franz.  I don't
have a shred of the amount of experience that most professionals on this
list have.  Why do you thing I am on it?  Maybe to learn?  This issue
concerns me due to the lack of young professionals in the industry and the
future of nuclear power and nuclear research.

If you need anymore of my information please request...I would be happy to
oblige.  In fact, I will be coming to Germany around June, maybe I could hop
on a train to Austria and you could tell me about one of your occupational
experiences that you learned from the most.  I will buy you a Stiegl or
marzen of your choice.

Nonetheless, I digress.

I enjoy the list and hearing about all rad related issues, notably the
behavior of radionuclides in the environment.  The bickering gets old and
tired...and I feel like over the past two years that I have been reading it,
90% of the time it could have been avoided.  Sometimes a bit childish.

Franz, I read the other day that the "moderator" is stepping down.
You could rule with an iron fist.  Think about it.

Happy Holidays
