One-page letter from a Georgia-Pacific safety supervisor to the secretary of the Gypsum Association Safety Committee, sent with an attachment that is not included. It says joint systems contain about 5% asbestos, that asbestos is very harmful but that the harm from the percentage used in a formula is questioned, and that product liability and blame on contractors who do not insist on respirators were expected to be raised. It also asks for 300 "Watchful Wally" stickers.
