This is correct. Do you know why they have never done household radon
cancer studies? Because if they did the studies they would not find
any cancers. Now THAT would be a big problem because....

Sometimes I
think its a whole corrupt government thing. Maybe the Real studies
indicated that anything under 10 pcI is completely safe. But if they
officially say it has to be under 4 pcI....when then they make a whole lot
more money that way. A whole lot more houses end up above the legal
limits.

Right. You got it.

There is now a money vested interest in keeping people afraid of
radon.
