RE: Nukes close, infant deaths go down - Tooth Fairy Project - NY Times

["Neil, David M" <neildm@id.doe.gov>]

Norm, you posted the equivalent "study" about a year or two ago.  It was

shot full of holes then.  I don't expect this iteration to be any more

valid.  If it was, why didn't they publish in one of the "main line"

scientific journals.  Did it get shot down in peer review? (That was

rhetoric - I know you don't have that information)
