Good deal on getting our name connected with cancer
Lets get fire up about radon - my background includes this subject
Radon kills
The donation and the horse race will help but lets not stop there
That mean that we are just after some PR
We can really make a difference by getting a good relationship between the TRUE radon professionals and NACHI (no room for the unqualified opportunists here - this is a big boy game - It kills)
Lot of unqualified people out there trying to make a buck in this area
Lets expose them and do a better job -- remember it saves lives (I lived in OHIO for 30 plus years and was a USN SS Reactor operator - (fun when you are young)
The scam artists need to be taken out of the industry
Training, Inspection, Certification, More training is life or you die
I know we have information on our site but getting a little more proactive in this area will save lives
This subject runs my pressure up a little
If I can help my hand is up
Just my thoughts

PS Would like to know if NACHI has ever gotten this subject up on the board before -- If not - why not??

I have been approached by the National Radon Safety Board and asked if NACHI would like to partner with them. I said yes. Details are being worked out, including some discount structures for membership and training for NACHI members.
RTCA (Radon Testing Corp of America) is planning to attend next year's NACHI convention, and I have asked them if they would be interested in teaching a Radon course. They are most interested...
Nancy Bredhoff, who heads RTCA is also the current President of the NRSB.
We have some high-level contacts, that's for sure...

Nancy was at our recent National Convention. She is the best. Before that, she and I met once long ago (maybe 1989) at a bankruptcy auction when she and I were competing bidders on a huge radon laboratory being broken up and sold off.

Joe,
Good job.
FYI,
Last I heard they are not considered a FL Radon business, which does not help many of us in FL. Can you use your talkings with them to push for the FL business as NACHI has a reported 700 members in FL?
