In a recent message M. Ford writes:

<< 
 My question is this:  Does anyone know of any epidemiological
 studies that have been done on farming and ranching populations
 wherein chemical exposures were investigated for causal links to
 specific diseases?

 
 We know what their rad exposures have been.... essentially

 Any info would be appreciated!
