[ RadSafe ] Suggestion - Contact News Media

Sun Mar 13 12:53:32 CDT 2011

    After  you  convince the news media to take a fair, balanced, scientifically 
founded view toward nuclear power , please contact me. I have a bridge you may 
be interested in buying.
    One good thing about beating your head against the wall is that it fells so 
good when you stop.

Dr. Bob Arnot is a general opportunist activist - see his website to book
him. Hiraldo also had Paul Gunter who was on earlier as well - founder of
Clamshell Alliance anti-nukes in 70's, received 2008 Jane Bagley Lehman
Award from Tides Foundation for his "fight against nuclear power". They also
received multiple live reports from a David Piper in Tokyo who repeatedly
claimed that 190 persons in the public were suffering from radiation
sickness (no references/sources cited)...not quite possible!
