  39. Yuan –

    This course is high quality and very valuable in practical experience, especially for persons depending on AC for daily life in tropic climates. My suggestion is to provide some data about the rate of incidence of lung cancer in Guam in the past year compared to other region of the world. This is to see how much the radon or RDP risk impact the health of the local residents

  40. Jason –

    Much of the same testing techniques are used in the states.

  44. Dale –

    It was very interesting to see the differences between the US mainland and Guam.

  45. Douglas J. –

    At first I wondered why Guam, but learned a great wealth of knowledge. Central Indiana has lots of limestone and now I understand more about Radon.
