<<Radio sataion KNX (AM 1070 in Los Angeles) has a story this morning
(2/24/97) 
reporting on a study that claims to show excess lung cancer deaths 
attributable to the "Cloud of high radiation" released from the accident at 
3-Mile Island.  Anybody have any details on this one? >>

<< I have no info but many of us would be acutely interested in learning 
      more about this so-called study.  Perhaps a phone call to the radio 
      station might elicit a source. >>

I have no data, but the L.A. Times reports:

"The study by researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel hill,
was published in Environmental Health Perspectives, the journal of the
National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences."
