Fueled by an endless supply of Twix bars.

Ha! The lady who was to hear my appeal has instead found in our favor and remanded our case back to the original group.

Thanks Dave I have to phone later and see where we go from here but the lady who was to hold the hearing went over her case and said that she did qualify under Part E and that the dose reconstruction and final review were unnecessary.

Very good! Sounds like 'remanded with a directed verdict.'

'Dose reconstruction?' Obviously, a term of bureaucratic art that means 'make something up.'

DQ it reads to me like it was a directed verdict. Dose reconstruction is what we in the computer business call a SWAG. Monsanto decided that my Florence would never be exposed to radiation and so she never wore film badges or dosimeters, but they would check her with a radiation meter-just before she changed out of her lab clothes and into her street clothes. She registed hot four times.

I am very glad the hearing was called off because it was scheduled for Oct 26th at 11:00 AM 2016. Florence died Oct 26th at 11:30 AM 2015 and I was there.. I would have gone but it would have torn me apart.

First the examiner takes two weeks to respond by snail mail. Then he goes on vacation. I guess his nose is so far out of joint that he will delay anyway he can. Maybe by Christmas?
