Page 3132 1 Let me change the facts for you then. 2 What if we were to say that instead of doing 3 these activities once a day, the mechanic would do 4 them twice a day. 5 Now, what would that result -- what result, 6 if any, would that have on your math? 7 A Well, that would -- if it were strictly 8 translatable, it would increase it to about double 9 that level, so it would be up to about .22 fibers. 10 Q Okay. Now, as a toxicologist and as an 11 industrial hygienist, do you have an opinion to a 12 reasonable degree of scientific certainty as to 13 whether that level of exposure would present any harm 14 to either the mechanic who was doing the work or those 15 people around him? 16 A Yes, I have an opinion. 17 Q And what is that opinion? 18 A There is no basis anywhere in the literature 19 or anywhere in any evaluations I have seen of workers 20 in these environments to support that those levels 21 would cause or contribute to any disease process.
