Dear John,

My congratulations for the wonderful analogies in your reply to the 
question of risk calculations.

I think that as medical radiation physicists that have, in many 
situations, as in my case, responsibilities in radiation protection, it's 
our duty to try to reduce the histeria about the radiation risks.

By the way, I'm very much interested in the video lectures  and in the 
book of Lapp. 

Unhappily, I will not attend the AAPM meeting in Boston.

My best regards,
Sergio
