  87. Jennifer –

    I am a radon tester in Ohio. This course addresses many of the questions I hear out in the field, and helps me better articulate my answers to my clients. One questions still remains, however: It was mentioned in one of the sections that the histology of smoking and radon is indistinguishable; both cause the same kind of lung cancer. How do we then know that 21,000 individuals in the U.S. die of radon-induced lung cancer each year? Thank you for putting this very informative program together.

  88. Richard –

    It should be viewed by everyone!

  89. Scott –

    I am finding that in a city where Radon and health concerns were before looked down upon, more and more people are realizing the health risks involved with exposure.

  97. Tim –

    Great information. I can use this information everyday with questions I am asked from customers.

  98. Brian –

    Strong public health issue.

  99. Paul –

    Great course, I looked forward to listening to each section. Very informative.

  100. Donna –

    This is a very important topic! Education of both professionals and the public should be a primary focus.
