I try to keep out of such discussion after some very bad experience a few

years ago, but I cannot resist now.



Firstly I cannot understand, how a facility in England can ask an American

who is not likely to have the slightest idea about English law, criteria

etc., to work on decommissioning.



Secondly I cannot understand, how an American, who clearly has not the

slightest idea about English law, criteria can accept such work.



Thirdly I cannot understand, how the same American can ask on Thursday

RADSAFE for details concerning decommissioning, when he has to use this

"knowledge" already next week. I think that to know a little about it would

require a course between a few days to a few weeks with excellent teachers.



Finally I cannot understand, how the same American can ask others to work

free of charge for him, whereas he is obviously paid for work he cannot do.



I have this week worked through the latest UK radiation legislation just for

the question of naturally occurring material and I assure you, it was not

easy.



Is this the normal attitude toward such serious questions like

decommissioning?
