[ RadSafe ] Radiation Protection and Academic Pursuits

[Larry Addis]

I have a few friends that I see every day, PhDs. Economist, Engineers -
(Mechanical, Chemical, Civil), at least three Health physicist, Political
Scientist, History Professors, Chemist, Entomologist, all are published and
successful - some retired.  Believe me they will take exception with your
opinion there. 

Ignorant? Ouch that left a mark. I'll let em what you said tomorrow.

Lenin's prescription?? .......Really?  

Not sure this is the venue to vent that type political rhetoric/ideology. 

But, feel free to send me a personal email any time, Ed.

Hope you are well otherwise,
Larry Addis

If one is so ignorant of basic economics NOT to see that the Obama
administration is indeed destroying the county per Lenin's prescription
(debauching the currency), then one is living in a dream world.  With the
country goes all those research projects, not to mention our children's and
grandchildren's futures.  Prevention of that disaster is the reason Robinson
ran for Congress.  Only fitting that he is honest about it.

No Howard, your point is well taken - I am with you there. I think you and I

and all on the list would agree that neither political nor theological

ideology or money should come into play.  Academic freedom and ethics should

trump when it comes to this serious question/conflict.  

 

Like I said, hopefully before it's all over the students will get an open,

fair and unobstructed opportunity to finish their academic pursuits. I'd

like to think this wouldn't happen at my University, but from this distance

I can't be a fair judge either way.

 

Having said that ..... I would give my and your eye teeth for a $10,000,000

earmark for my university night now. Times are TOUGH. Eye teeth yes,

personal integrity and people's careers and professional futures - NO WAY. 

 

Having said all that, I was a little disappointed to read something WHOLLY

political in the FIRST line of Art Robinson's article:

 

"In an effort to do my part in rescuing our country from the out-of-control

Obama administration, last year I ran for Congress in Oregon's 4th District"

 

Just sets too much of an ideological tone or flavor rather than serious

academic/ethical.  "Rescue our country"? or Rescue these kids?

Larry,

I must have omitted the motivation: $10,000,000 earmark for political

supporters.

 

At Clemson, would you deny access (to a PhD student with highest grades) to

reactor equipment the student himself had constructed, in order to give that

equipment to students more politically favored and in order for faculty to

sell?

 

I would not trust any health physics graduate from such a program.

Participants in Doctors for Disaster programs hosted by Dr Robinson (Linus

Pauling's partner) and readers of his Access to Energy, please comment.

 

Distrust of current info from Japan foretells decline of the whole health

physics profession if it cannot stop this corruption at OSU. Do try to get

the OSU view
