Was that wrong? Should I not have done that? I gotta plead ignorance here.

well, the more sensationalist hysteria the more impetus for a "call to action",...

the regs on TENORM are not that heavy on the compliance and compliance monitoring side, nor on the ALARA, nor on any incentives to any of these,....

many of your working brethren are on the compliance monitoring side of things,....

the more compliance monitoring, the more jobs,....

whether or not we think and know those jobs are a bit overboard on the conservative restrictions side, we take those jobs nonetheless,...

embrace the jobs,...
