         Although we might wish it were different, we live in a 
     cost/benefit driven world.  I have a small project that might save 
     some dose, but it needs to get past some hard-nosed bean counters 
     first. 
        Can someone direct me to a source of information on the dollar
cost 
     (to society or a business)for an exposure of a man Rad.  General 
     information like "my company uses X dollars per man Rad" would be
nice 
     to know, but an official document would move things along a lot 
     better.
     
     Thanks in advance,
