[John R Johnson]

Radsafers

I think I posted these DU references before. I don't see why you are saying
there are not good references

Uranium references

Radiation Risks and Uranium Toxicity, A Brodsky, RSA Publications, 1996

A Review of the Scientific Literature as it Pertains to Gulf War Illnesses
Harley et al RAND, 1999

Depleted Uranium Sources, Exposure and Heath Effects, World Health
Organization, 2001

See committee membership at:
http://www8.nationalacademies.org/cp/CommitteeView.aspx?key=117

Their scientific credentials seem  impressive, but the committee lacks
theologians, bioethecists, lawyers, political scientists, etc [i.e. ,the
kind of people that are really needed to make the required social/moral
decisions.  If science were all that mattered, Rokke's views on DU effects
would have been laughed off to begin with.    Jerry Cohen

> You are correct, John. The anti-DU activists will undoubtedly detect bias
on the committee somehow and use that to discount any conclusions
unfavorable to their causes.
> However, the report will go a long way with our legislators (I hope,
irregardless of its conclusions). I look forward to reading the final
report.
> I do not know who is (or will be) on the NAS subcommittee. If any
RADSAFERs know or find out, please post the list.
