Re: High dose for March

To offer a possibility, were your mailing/transportation control 
dosimeters okay?  Were your background dosimeter okay?  Were your 
QC dosimeters okay?  If they were all unusual to the same extent, 
check out the post-office x-ray screening program.  Due to recent 
events I think more packages are being examined than in the past!

And as Ron noted, if that doesn't seem to be the case, have
Landauer visually examine some of the unexpected dose films.  They
may not have done that (its not impossible to be a processor QC/QA
problem!).
