[ RadSafe ] Psychological Impacts of Chernobyl

[Richard Gallego]

 From your link:


"There are many corollaries to Godwin's law, some considered more canonical
(by being adopted by Godwin himself)[3] than others.[1] For example, there
is a tradition in many newsgroups and other Internet discussion forums that
once such a comparison is made, the thread is finished and whoever mentioned
the Nazis has automatically "lost" whatever debate was in progress."


Looks like I lost! (:
