From CNN
"We already have a few clues. Since at least the sixth century B.C., Icaria was known to the ancient Greeks and Romans as a health destination -- largely for its hot springs believed to relieve pain, joint problems and skin ailments. Our team has reviewed reports of high levels of radon in these baths and will be exploring a theory that chronic exposure to low-level radiation may help protect DNA against the ravages of aging."

Hello Jerry,
I don't have my Login here at the office for the Rad Group, so would you please post for me? And circulate amongst radon friends. May be worth trying to contact CNN - I'll look into getting a CNN contact from this end too.
