Re: Field's Input

Michael,



I think he was frustrated by the number of times he answered these same 

questions for you over and over.  You started the ad hominem attacks against 

him personally with your previous postings on Radsafe.  I viewed his 

response as frustration with your posts on a public listserv concerning a 

study he co-authored.  You attacked the Iowa study in a letter to Gov. Bush 

and then sent it for publication in the Billet.  Did you ask him for a 

clarification on these issues before you wrote the letter to Gov. Bush?  I 

personally think his response was constrained considering the misinformation 

of your letter and its circulation.



As far as Dr. Field standing up for a study he coauthored, check the 

archives for his name.  He has spent hours responding on this listserv in 

the past. He also wrote the letter to the Billet at the urging of HPS 

members from that local society. I have seen no other epidemiologist debate 

the issues on this list of ANY study they published.  If you know of such an 

instance, let me know. Nor, do I know of any other epidemiologist who took 

the time to document their methodology in so many major peer reviewed 

journals.  Show me even one epidemiology study on any subject that published 

their QA methodology for that study.





As far as a retraction from me.  What did I say that requires a retraction?



Don
