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.
