Colleagues -
Are we certain this is a current event? I forwarded the RADSAFE message
yesterday to a colleague with the State of New Jersey and received the following
as a reply ...
"I realize this was posted on Radsafe today, but the incident occurred
about 3-4 years ago. I cannot imagine why someone chose to resurrect this
particularly bizarre incident."
