Re[6]: Contaminated Residential Waste from I-131 Patient

[steve.rima@DOEGJPO.COM (Steven Rima)]

     Don,
     
     I must respectfully disagree with you. If we ever get to the point that, as 
     a profession, we stoop to the level of the anti's and start public name 
     calling, berating, personally attacking, etc. an entire agency or 
     individuals in them to try to influence public opinion and policy, that's 
     the point when I'll find a new profession to associate myself with.
     
     Steve

Been there, done that, have the tee-shirt, didn't work.  But then I have 
never been an expert.

Is too.  Extremists influence policy at the margins and create momentum. 
That is why activists attack the other sides extremists.  Mainstream folk 
just have to periodically express concern about the extremists behavior. 
Antis have more extremists, note the direction of the momentum.
