RE: Al Gore

[Dave Derenzo <dave@uic.edu>]

This is very third hand information but a dental equipment representative 
told me that he visited an dental office at which Gore received dental 
care.  Supposedly Gore refused dental x-rays because he was afraid of the 
harmful effects.  If this is true there are implications regarding his 
possible political stance.
