Re: from lochbaum, differences in biological effects of radiation

["Tom Savin" <lexicon@hotbot.com>]

 Hi Norm,

I have been (also currently) involed in clean up and decommisioning of Oak Ridge National Laboritory, I also have written numerous documents for the IRIS USEPA concerining various chemicals (substances). I truely beleive that you consider yourself, as I, an advocate for the benefit of mankind.  I am Too!  Guess what! I have a stance that through good science
all questions will be answered.  All will be eventually solved.  An open mind can solve all, this is a good thought for all concerned. I was one of the first people to make transgenic mice, do you think that is wrong?  For the benefit for All mankind?  Norm, take heed, whether you believe it or not, radsafers are on your side, as well as the public!
