RE: a stupid question - or not

["Potter, Charles" <capotte@sandia.gov>]

The following is a description of the RADSAFE list from the archives page:

"The Radiation Safety Distribution list is an electronic mailing list for
Health Physicists, Medical Physicists, Radiological Engineers and others who
have a professional interest in matters related to Radiation Protection..."

Should the individuals described above, even those just having "a
professional interest in matters ..." be able to look up a conversion
constant?  If this list is for health physics professionals, then
individuals should understand that some questions may not be appropriate.
For those who are "afraid" to submit questions, that is their decision.
Perhaps we need a new list for those who have a need to have their basic
questions on health physics answered, or real questions should be applied to
DOSE_NET and the basic questions discussed here.

A file that big?
It might be very useful,
But now it's gone.
