Letter to the editor from the AIA/NA Executive Secretary disputing Robert Sherrill's New York Times Magazine article "Asbestos, the saver of lives, has a deadly side." It lists five points: the long latency of asbestos disease, industry spending on dust control, industry-sponsored medical research, doubts about Dr. Selikoff's predictions, and the Labor Department's delay of the two-fiber standard.
