[ RadSafe ] Highly Biased Poll on Depleted Uranium in Hawaii

[Maury Siskel]

Passed this on to the 70 or so friends and family with whom I correspond 
daily. Hopefully some of them will help add to the first choice in the 
poll -- it would be fun if the tables might be turned a bit on the 
anti-nucs.
Best,
