It would help if a dose the the pregnant PI were to be calculated.  Then
one could assess the gravity of the situation.  A few dpm on the bum
doesn't seem to me to be much of a health or safety problem :-) except
perhaps emotionally.  Proper education on the effects of radiation might
be an answer.  Ciao.  Al Tschaeche, CHP antatnsu@pacbell.net
