Regardless of what so many Radsafers seem to think, sarcasm does not reassure

the public.  Perception is reality.  We have to address the radiological and

toxic risks of DU.  There's still a lot we don't know.  Look on this as an

opportunity to learn more about a potential hazard.



The opinions expressed are strictly mine.

It's not about dose, it's about trust.

I thought we agreed a while back that Curies were among the things that ARE NOT forever, by definition.



Or perhaps science is another of those areas in which perception is more important that fact.
