Ladies and Gentlemen; Two months ago, I subscribed to this
RadSafe-List to involve myself in discussions about radiation safety – mainly in
the Hospital/Medical and research community, knowing full well that the majority
would be fuel cycle related discussions because of the gregariousness of the
people in that industry. I have seen very little of either of these type
discussions. What I have seen is
mainly political discussions. Don’t get me wrong – I love a good
political discussion. I am quick to jump in with my opinion (on the Futurist-Constitutionist
side). From this list, however, I
was looking for technical discussions of technical issues. I have always believed that it is
impossible for a technician and a politician to have a valid discussion capable
of discovering real solutions because the technician is limited to using only
truth, and, as such, is at a severe disadvantage to the politician. Due to my busy schedule as the
manager, Health, Safety and Environment (including RSO functions) for a
research organization with over 1000 dogs and at least three times that in rodents,
and due to the fact that I cannot assign time to 20-30 emails a day that, as
yet, have no bearing on my position; I feel I must leave your company. I would leave you this challenge – If
you know of a good list-serv dealing in Radiation and/or Safety issues in the
Medical or research community, please send that information along. I do not intend to unsubscribe until
Tuesday, so If you’re quick…. Thanks for inviting me in, and “Thanks
for all the fish” Dave Andrews |
