The E-mail Formerly Known as Course Announcement

[Mike Davidson <DAVIDSON@gtsduratek.com>]

Well, I've really done it.  Let my errors serve as a notable event and lesson learned.  Basically, read instructions before use.  Follow the rules.  Do not post encoded messages to the Radsafe listserver. I will attempt to post this course announcement for a final time.  My apologies to Melissa, fellow radsafers and radsafer-advisors.  Hope I got it right.  I am out of flame retardant PPE.
