The human toll of right-to-die battles will be the focus of an international conference Thursday featuring key players in landmark court rulings.

The parents of Karen Ann Quin-lan, Nancy Cruzan and Christine Busalacchi are among those scheduled to address an audience of doctors, lawyers, health-care and social workers. "Never before has there been a conference that emphasizes the human drama of the players themselves," said Dr. Ronald Cranford, a Minneapolis neurologist and a supporter of the national right-to-die movement. "We're going to hear the story from the families themselves."

As for the gasoline tanks, he said! "I know what's in the tanks. Nothing." As far back as 1970, some residents have reported the smell of gasoline coming from their private drinking wells, Thompson said. Residents of the neighborhood have since been hooked up to the city water system, but some still are using private wells to water their lawns, he noted. In 1989, the MPCA discovered tetrachloroethene, or PCE, in pri- vate wells in amounts exceeding federal limits in the Clarks Lane- Gilmore area. PCE, a suspected cancer-causing chemical, is a solvent commonly used in dry cleaning.
