    NYCOSH Letter to the NY Times posted by Jordan Barab, Confined Space
    How could I have missed this? A letter to the NY Times, December 29, from Joel Shufro, Executive Director of NYCOSH:

    Re ''When Workers Die'' series (front page, Dec. 21-23):
    Occupational disease is preventable. The death of a worker from occupational disease is no less necessary or tragic than the deaths described in your excellent series. Unfortunately, as with the fatalities you described, some employers get away with murder.
