OK, let's get real. Do you really think that there were actions taken 
intentionally that directly led to serious illnesses, i.e., cancers, 
at DOE facilities, such as Hanford, and, that the individual need not 
provide any documentation to support that claim? There have been many 
studies at Hanford specifically, that refute any direct correlation 
of dose and illness .. even if you consider the Wing report, there 
has been much to contradict his statistical techniques, and let's not 
forget Ms Stewart's "scientifically" conducted experiments and 
subsequent report.

Before you go on a international listserver making claims that 
workers could have been hurt in the name of secrecy, please be 
prepared to validate your claims. This isn't supposed to be like any 
internet website where the most ludicrous claims can be made,, 
without the need for validation. Radsafe is supposed to be a forum 
for intelligent (if possible) dialogue.
