Subject: Reading some Caldicott





Just browsed through:

http://members.ozemail.com.au/~wfnev/April00Caldicott.htm



It is interesting to see how semiquantitive these texts are. There are some 

numbers here and there but they are never given in a way so that one can get



a reasonable perspective on the risks (if there are any worth mentioning). 

Or no numbers at all: In the passage about any dose being dangerous she 

mentions smoke detectors - interesting & illuminating to say the least.



My personal reflection only,
