[ RadSafe ] NRC blog post on Questioning Attitude

[Peter Crane]

Bill, I'm glad you drew the list's attention to this admirable blog post.  It was written by Maria Schwartz, a former colleague of mine in the NRC's Office of General Counsel -- a fine lawyer and a lovely person.  

The challenge for the NRC has always been to apply to itself the precepts it urges its licensees to follow:  a questioning attitude, tolerance and encouragement of dissenting views, etc.  Few organizations find that a questioning attitude toward their own past actions, policies, and assumptions comes easily.
