Fw: cosmic radiation

["Michael Stabin" <michael.g.stabin@vanderbilt.edu>]

The following posted at the request of Jesse Drucker. He would like to talk

with anyone who has happened to have experience with an FAA website related

to cosmic ray doses received during airline flights. His timeline is short,

so if you would be willing to share any information or experiences, he would

appreciate hearing from you soon.
