[ RadSafe ] The hot and cold of history & journalistic credibility

[jjcohen at prodigy.net]

Howard & all,
    I have a theory to account for what we have observed regarding the
public's perception of global warming, nuclear power, environment
degradation, and many other "threats" currently facing humanity.
Simply stated, I hypothesize that there is a unwritten rule in all
journalism schools that any student displaying an understanding or aptitude
for science is precluded from graduating and attaining a degree in
journalism. I can't prove my theory, but it certainly would explain a lot
about what we have been observing. What do you think?

> Howard Maccabee PhD MD is an LLNL physicist turned radiation oncologist
and founder of Doctors for Disaster Preparedness. I have seen him exposed to
dozens of presentations on global warming by Harvard astrophysicist Sallee
Balliunas, Willy Soon, Springer, Moore, Balling and many others. I was his
guest at an SF presentation featuring Michael Crichton MD, who started out
supporting the movement but found data showed the opposite of what the
carbon tax collectors claim, thus "The State of Fear" on my waiting room
table.
