         This link is to Mangano and Sherman's 
"paper" in the IJHS claiming increased deaths in 
the US as a result of the Fukushima 
accident.  It's 18 pages of PDF.  I have not read it.

         Among others, M&S quote themselves (in 
Counterpunch, and elsewhere); Jay Gould; Ernest 
Sternglass; Alice Stewart (a 1958 paper); and 
your friend and mine, CHRIS BUSBY!!  (Wolves of Water)

         With respect to the IJHS, some 15 years 
ago I attended a large anti-nuclear event in 
Albuquerque.  One or more papers from the IJHS 
were being distributed from the literature table.
