Font problem and apology
With respect to my recent posting about the solar particle warning system, I
wrote the document in Word and exported it to my e-mail. Unfortunately, I
discovered only now that my e-mail software was unable to put in the Greek
symbol mu. So in the places that I gave SI equivalent dose following the
older units the program changed what was intended to be microsievert (with
the letter mu) into mSv. Sorry.
Also it has been brought to my attention that the last sentence implies that
all RADSAFERS are men. For this sexist perspective, I apologize to all my
women colleagues. I deeply regret this unintended insult.
