any more about the position than what's in the announcement.

plain got too busy. I recently stuck my toe back into the water by

subscribing to the digest version. To my amazement, it's like I was never

gone! It's pretty much the exact same people discussing (mostly arguing) the

exact same issues, e.g., Norm Cohen, LNT, Iowa Radon Study, etc., etc., etc.

It reminds me, in many ways, of a soap opera...
