Re: Dr. K.Z. Morgan



KZ is another in a long line of HP's that have died during 1999.  I am
pleased that the Journal was able to dedicate an issue to him while he was
yet alive.  Whatever one's views on Karl personally or professionally, it is
historically indisputable that he made enormous contributions to the science
and art of health physics, and to the establishment of health physics as a
profession.  May he rest in peace.
