A three-page memo from Cabot Berylco comparing the health hazards and product liability exposure of beryllium with those of asbestos, written after Manville's Chapter 11 filing. It describes asbestos-related diseases, argues that beryllium has not been established as a human carcinogen, and recommends continued vigilance on exposure and warnings to users of beryllium. The document does not concern Union Carbide or Calidria.
