It is a lot of material during a shortened week; therefore, you will be allowed to turn in the HW on Friday.  I know we don't meet, but you can drop it off any time to me that day or I can get it from you at the rally (if we have one).  In any event, we'll find each other somehow.

Please do some research.  See if you can come up with some articles that discuss  dioxin (TCDD; a contaminant found within Agent Orange sprayed as a defoliant during the Vietnam War) and its link to cancer.  I  would like you to then read a little bit about the "Double Hit Hypothesis" of cancer. 
Finally, try to put the two together and see if you can find any articles that discuss dioxin causing cancer against the backdrop of the two hit hypothesis.  Just make notes and we'll discuss in class.
