Re: Fwd: Radiation Exposures to Tokai Workers

["Sandy Perle" <sandyfl@earthlink.net>]

Mike,

What was the basis for the estimates presented below? Is there data 
to support the new projected figures, or, is it only based on what 
one would assume the effects the workers display, to have been 
derived from?

Thanks ..
