Hello all,

Good news for those who have been and/or are exposed to asbestos fibers
in schools.
According to Dr.Louis Drouin, a Quebec Govt. specialist responsible for
environmental
health in the Montreal area,
the risk arising from exposure to asbestos fibers
is 1500 times smaller
than the one from being a moderate cigarette smoker, hence a very weak
risk.

Later,
