Subject: The Secret Word - a possible answer
Hello, Radsafers
It seems to me that we are back to where we were 2-5-10 etc. years ago...
>From my personal point of view one of possible ways to credibly
prove/disprove the validity of LNT is a MAJOR epidemiological study
addressing possible effects of radiation exposure in 'non-nuclear'
industries. There were, are and will be much more workers in these
industries receiving doses of the same magnitude as "nuclear" workers, and
much more than dentists, radiographers, etc.; and a study of this kind would
not be such a problem (at least that's how it looks from here).
So, I was wondering - there are so many universities, government
departments, research institutions and nobody thought about that...?
Just my personal thoughts...
Kind regards

The battle isn't here on Radsafe. The battle must be fought
in the
trenches. The battle must be first won by reputable
scientists who
have in the past, continued to foster the notion that
radiation, even
at the minutest amounts, will cause a higher increase in
illness
and in some cases, even death, now coming out and stating
that
their hypothesis was simply incorrect. Until this happens,
and
those organizations who harbor these scientists, as though
they
are God, the debate will continue, and legislation will
continue to
be based on a false hypothesis. I'm a pessimist. I firmly
believe
that not only is the current positions of many of the
scientists and
institutions wrong, it will not get any better, but in
reality, will
actually get worse. The indicators are very clear. Increased
regulatory scrutiny and actions taken when there is no
identifiable
harm determined. Legislation moving to reduce allowable
radiation
exposure, based on input from the "learned" institutions.
