Re: Transfer of Radioactive Material to another institution

[William V Lipton <liptonw@dteenergy.com>]

No matter how many times I'm told that, "There's no such thing as a dumb

You need a qualified shipper on your staff, NOT a few fast answers from
RADSAFE.

The opinions expressed are strictly mine.
It's not about dose, it's about trust.
