Exactly! Last year we posted a position in the Newsletter, and
we received a good response. In retrospect, the cost to us (a
University department on a modest budget) both in dollars and in
the long time delay, was just not worth it. We anticipate another opening,
but I guarantee it won't be listed in the Newsletter for just the reasons
discussed on this thread. We will try posting on Bruce's list and,
of course, we'll let Radsafers know about it, too.  Jack
