 With regard to several recent postings on this board
concerning health hazards of epoxy based RP resins, the
following is an input as boradcast on Channel 4 in Boston,
Massachusetts.

Several former workers at the GE Plant in Pittsfield, MA
have expressed their distress with having had long time
exposure to epoxy resins used in the making of transformers. 
These same workers are claiming that they have developed
cancerous lesions over areas of their bodies that were
exposed to epoxy fumes.  This report was aired on May 19.
