I have noticed that quite a few RADSAFErs have fallen into the trap of
Norman Cohen again. For those, who have subscribed to RADSAFE not so long
ago I can mention that Norman Cohen has fooled the RADSAFE community already
some time ago, by posting "questions", pretending to be interested in a
scientific approach and then gradually coming out with his anti-nuclear and
anti-radiation opinions. I am sure to remember correctly that somebody on
RADSAFE commented that he boasted at anti-nuclear websites about his
disputes with the pro-nuclears at RADSAFE. He is obviously making his living
with his anti-nuclear agitation - I have accused him for doing so and he has
not denied it. I comment on RADSAFE at home from my private computer at my
own costs and in my spare time (it is 1:25 am in Austria right now) - he has
not denied that he earns money by doing so when I put this accusation
forward.
The shit - yes, I use deliberately this four letter word - which he posted
on RADSAFE is just one case among hundreds of other idiotic newspaper
articles. I could send dozens of similar ones to RADSAFE - even if Norman
would pay me generously for the translation I would not bother you with it.
I am not impressed by any article from San Francisco, London, Adelaide,
Beijing and least from Austria. We have a proverb in German: "He lies like
it had been printed". This is true not only for the lowest class papers, but
as well for the so-called highly reputaded papers, not to talk about TV.
Norman puts forward a newspaper article, as if it were the bible -
containing the truth, the truth and nothing as the truth. Next he questions
the news about the thickness of a containment and repeats silly remarks on
very small details. (Thank you Jaro for the very informative information!)
I have also fallen into his trap before, I really tried to explain patiently
some basic knowledge - without any result. He is a stubborn activist, who
makes his money with his agitation - or did nobody read his advertisments at
the end of his "contributions"? Nobody reasonably can oppose "peace" - but
this is converted into anti-nuclear movements.
Now we have the ultimate generosity: He is taking discussions to private
mail to save bandwidth. I think, the better way to save bandwidth would be
that he would not post to RADSAFE.
