It is obvious my last message somehow got runover on the info. superhighway.

I had summarized a smmary of the latest bit of wisdom to be spewed forth 
from our good friends Sternglass and Gould.  It would appear that on Sept 8 
they released yet another report that links breast cancer fatalities 
directly to nuclear emmissions.  A 10% increase between 1950-89 in 268 
counties with or near nuclear facilities.  They also claim a 41 percent 
increase near 5 "military" facilities - Hanford, Idaho, Savannah River, 
Oak Ridge, and Brookhaven.  Jay Gould goes on to state "The public has 
not been informed of its risks."  Both authors are requesting a 
congressional investigation.
