RE: radiation is radiation?

["Kent, Michael D" <Michael.D.Kent@nspco.com>]

Norm,

Just a quick observation for you; maybe you can pass this on to your
colleagues at the TF project.

As has been pointed out numerous times, cancer rates in Denver, Co are not
higher than the national average.  This is true, even though they live in an
area where background radiation is twice as high, AND they have Rocky Flats
next door (lot's and lot's of DEADLY Plutonium, and other nasty stuff).

Why not go and do a study in Denver?   Could it be that this would possibly
skew the results of their survey and show something they did not want ( i.e.
to hard to twist the data to fit the mold you need).
