"Light" on UNSCEAR. I talked to Norm Gentner this
morning on another matter. He said their web site was down for a "few days" for
repair and upgrading".

5000 died of radiation at Chernobyl
I don't know what has happened to UNSCEAR (or my recent
posting tot he list which took several days to come back to me through the
list?) But only the other day I was able to access this report on the
URL I gave in my previous posting. I would repeat it, but I deleted the
posting when it got back to me. I tried after recieving the original
e-mail from Maury to access UNSCEAR from a search on Google, but I couldn't
get into the site. So any loss of the site must be very recent. A
serch on Goolgle does identify several other sitres where the Chernobyl
information can be found. I do have a copy of the original report in pdf
format on my work computer, but (although I can't remember the exact file
size) I suspect it is too large for an e-mail.
If anyone can shed any
light on this I would be interested. I recall from a presentation give
by Norman Gentner? the UNSCEAR secretary last year in Oxford that there
was some concern then over continuing funding for this body of th UN.
Does anyone know any more detail on whether funding has been stopped for
UNSCEAR?
Regards,
Julian
