     Mr Ogden,
     
     You have a lot of nerve writing a message like that to Sandy, clogging 
     up the net with your philosophical tirades.  Either you or most 
     everybody else has totally missed the point of this forum.  Keep the 
     net clear?!  If it were clear, what would be the point of having it?
     
     I don't always agree with Sandy's opinions on all topics, but I 
     certainly do find it refreshing and beneficial to have an expert in 
     the practical side of health physics also be a prolific contributor to 
     this forum.
     
     If I interpret her remarks correctly, she was highlighting an area of 
     regulation directly impacting risk to members of the general public.  
     She is cautioning us as a society of professionals not to get carried 
     away and throw out current legislation without sufficient analysis of 
     the consequences.
     
     Nasty-grams like the one below truly have no place in this forum.  I'm 
     writing this response in an attempt to repair any damage done by your 
     dicouraging comments.  Not every posting is valuable to everyone, but 
     if someone with an opinion doesn't post it because they're 
     intimidated, then we've all lost something.

By the way Sandy, there are studies out there that convincingly refute the 
commonly accepted "speed kills" theory.  Sounds like health physics doesn't it?

Sandy:
     
Get a life!  Are you the self appointed expert on every issue?  Leave 
the net alone for serious inquires and replies concerning radiation.
     
If you would stay off the net a little more often you may be able to 
accomplish some real work.
     
Sorry but I'm tired of always having to go through your un-ending 
philosopical tirads.
     
Keep the net clear.
