[Holloway3@aol.com]

Apparently, the Ph.D. thesis by H.C. Yeh is currently available, since it was
available to the reporter from the Boston Globe who wrote the article refered
to by Mr. Farber.   The URL of the article is:

The following is an excerpt from the Boston Globe article.  After this
paragraph, the reporter goes on to discuss the research findings.  


            "That clarification is coming slowly. Results from the updated
               Dutch study, which is being funded by the National Cancer
               Institute, are still two years off. Johns Hopkins will not
               release the results of its Maryland follow-up before they are
               published in a medical journal, which may not be for another
               six months. But the Johns Hopkins results can be found in
               the doctoral dissertation of the lead researcher, Hsin-Chieh
               Yeh, dated June 1997. "
