Believe me, it makes you look twice when you see cartons of milk on the shelf with the bread. The quality of the irradiated milk is far superior to that of "fresh" when the fresh must come from over a thousand miles away and the time required by the transportation system and sub- tropical climate are degrading the milk. It was great getting a suntan and reading about the Siberian Deep Freeze. Steve Henning, AT&T Bell Labs, Reading, PA.
