RE: Tooth Fairy Project - Worthy of HPS Position Paper

["Sandy Perle" <sandyfl@EARTHLINK.NET>]

I am providing John Frazier's response, with his permission.

===========================================



Sandy,



Thank you for bringing this matter to my attention.  The Scientific & 

Public Issues Committee last discussed the draft Position Statement 

on this subject at the Orlando Midyear meeting two years ago.  I will 

secure a copy of the (revised) draft from Otto Raabe and send it to 

the other members of the Committee so that we can discuss it at our 

next meeting in Augusta, Georgia.  



I have been following this topic for over 4 years, when I was 

contacted by a reporter with CBS News on the subject.  I referred the 

reporter to Dr. Tom Gesell, as he is an expert on radionuclide levels 

in the environment (and in humans).  Tom provided the reporter with 

information about the Sr-90 in the environment and in humans 

(including their bones and teeth).  



Otto wrote a summary of the Project on March 29, 2001, that he sent 

to Radsafe.  Currently on the HPS website, there is a response 

written by Tom Gesell to a question regarding the Project.  In his 

response, Tom refers to the NCI study of cancer risks near nuclear 

power plants.  



Thanks again.



Best regards,



John
