Re[2]: another intentional misuse
Bill touches on the cure below. My question is: Has there been any
formal root cause analysis conducted for any of these recent events,
either individually or as a group? I suspect not. Without knowing the
true root cause(s), there's no way to fix the problem.
We can all try to deduce the cause based on limited information, but
we, and the NRC, will almost certainly miss the mark if that's what is
done.

Now's the
time for the institutions to try to address the root cause(s) of this problem.
Someone
should study this as an epidemic; that's why I've been using the word. There
may be common
factors which will suggest ways for nonobtrusive and effective intervention.
Simply saying
that it's impossible won't work.
The opinions expressed are strictly mine.
It's not about dose, it's about trust.
