A member asked:
Could you tell me about radon and what is best home test, and if radon can affect a whole street?

Small cancer risk: There's general agreement in the scientific community that radon in the home increases the lung cancer risk in smokers slightly, and if it's a factor for the very-rare lung cancers in non-smokers, it's extremely small. Politics determines how much we have to spend to lessen tiny risks; most scientists think aggressive radon control is a poor use of funds. I can't recommend a particular test.
