Okay, now that I got my fun in for the day, I have to say I agree with Elvis 
on this. 
About the only case I know of any thing that might be related to RF is a budy 
of mine who died from luekimia after serving six years in the Air Force as a 
radar repair tech. It might be related but then who can say if safety regs 
were always followed.
