[ RadSafe ] "Waste"

[Min Sook Kim]

Dear Howard

It would not be too difficult to have an open mind to potential hormesis of
air pollution even if my employment depended on it. I don't think medical
oncologists would be against finding a cure for cancer because their
employment depends on it. It was difficult for me to be open minded to the
article about benefits from the poor quality of air because it was
untruthful about or manipulated his reference study. Some people has an
agenda to protect his/her political and commercial interests. Others are
much more interested in science and truth. My mind thrives on controversy
but only when both sides are truthful.

Regards,
Min-Sook Kim, Ph.D.

Tom, Kim and all,
An open mind to possible benefit from a more air dust, sunshine, or x-ray
is difficult (especially when our employment depends on it), but necessary
for objectivity. All political and commercial interests tend to present one
side, but our legal system is based on judges listening to advocates of
both sides.

Viva the two sides from the two Schwartz!
- The better for us to judge.

      Thanks Mr. Dapra for your clarification that there are two Joel
      Schwartzes.
      I personally don't care for the author's credentials or the
      organization he
      belongs to. I didn't and will not propose whether the poor quality of
      air
      is not harmful or is even  beneficial to individual's health.

Dear Mr. Kim--This was a great response to this character's post!   An
industry hack as far as I was able to determine!   Tom
