Jerry,
I am glad you had the time to
review and comment to the NCRP. Actually, I think the NCRP reviewed
a broad spectrum of papers and articles. Were the ones you cited
listed? If so, what comments were made about them in the report. If
you and other intended to "flood" the NCRP with "relevant" material that was
already reviewed, I am not surprised you received no reply. In reviewing
the report, I think that the NCRP adequately addressed the state of the
literature and complexity of the data at the time it was written. They
certainly cited numerous reports, as noted in chapter 9 which shows a number of
studies and the conflicting estimates of risk. I guess they did not have
your clear insight into the results which you obvious drew from the selected
literature you reviewed.
I think that the report
adequately addressed or, at least, laid out the problem with many of the
studies. Of course, the selection was politically unacceptable to your
political agenda. You have your opinions and I have
mine.
Have a good
holiday.
-- John
