[ RadSafe ] An Advocate of Spring Cleaning

[Harry J. Newman, CHP]

In response to the radsafer who brought it up:
I cast my lot with those who would not include company/personal propaganda on the site and that it should be used for technical exchange only.
A little "spring cleaning" would be greatly appreciated.
And Marcel, THANKS for taking over the site!  
Harry

I don't see this as an issue, since what I posted is in the news, 
and, is information.
I'll go with whatever the list memebers want, and particularly the 
rule that Marcel states.
