60 Minutes story on Savannah River Laboratory

[Rick_Strickert@radian.com]

CBS's 60 Minutes had a story Sunday night about a class action lawsuit that
accuses the management of Savannah River Laboratory of discriminating
against blacks not only in hiring and promotions, but for allegedly putting
them in jobs that exposed them to more radiation than white workers.   

There were claims of plutonium in the body and urine of at least one worker,
but no quantitative numbers or units were given.

Did anyone see the CBS show who knows whether or what kind of contamination
levels actually occurred?
