Dear Radsafers
For many years, I've been a keen reader of, but rare contributor to, Radsafe…. a very interesting discussion group!
Currently a Committee Member of Soc Rad Pro Scotland, I am still continuing a decades long (spare time) study of the effects (good and/or bad) of exposure to inhaled alpha emitters, be they 'anthropogenic' (Pu etc) or 'natural' (Rn and its decay products). If there's anyone out there who’d like to contribute to this investigation, I’d be very pleased to hear from them….
Best regards to all
David Kirkland BSc MBE

Otto, Carol, Sandy, Franz, Doug, Andy, and countless others have added to my knowledge and perspective of this wonderful and diverse profession. Where else can you hear from highly esteemed professors, NRC members, Vendors, and others on topics of interest to many of us? I’ve thought before about petitioning ABHP and NRRPT to allow CEUs for Radsafe membership, I know it has added greatly to my professional base of knowledge and challenged my perspectives. And I’ve made many professional friends here as well!
