Here is a link from our local newspaper, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel,

about late night shift working being a carcinogen.

Let's see, I think I have them all covered now -- father as a dentist

taking more than the usual number of dental x-rays and freely inserting

mercury fillings as he had the equipment available, grew up in a

household with two heavy smokers as parents, worked at UPS for 11 years

inhaling deisel fumes as 200 trucks started up in the morning to leave

the building, worked through college and grad school overnight (at UPS

and elsewhere) so I could be with my kids and attend school during the

day! And I was surprised to be diagnosed with brain cancer? Not

surprised any more!
