Dear Dr. Bennett:
Your letter of March 17, 1987 makes reference to two fabrication/BFGoodrich cases of ASL. I am not sure of your intent. I believe I mentioned during your visit that BFG had been joined in a suit by an auto worker alleging cancer from exposure to PVC fabric. If you are referring to this case, I have no information beyond that and may have difficulty obtaining more information.
BFG was also joined in a suit alleging angiosarcoma of the liver from neighborhood exposure to VCM. This was known as the "Grasso" case and ended in a judgement against the VCM producer and PVC manufacturers.
The case at Louisville which I mentioned in my last letter has been confirmed and I am now sending you a work history.
The case at Niagara Falls remains unclear as we have been unable to obtain tissue samples and there are still conflicting statements as to diagnosis.
The Rubber Chemical W.T.R. document has been useful. Thank you.
I look forward to reading Sir Richard Doll's study.
Sincerely
