Dear NN
Your response included a sentence containing a triple-negative:
"As yet, I am not convinced that the MED/AEC legacy here has not had a
negative impact."
Could you possible rephrase that so that I (perhaps others) know exactly of
what you are convinced? Thanks
Thanks

Dear Syd:
CV is Curriculum Vitae--a basic resume or educational reference.
Because I have been accused of being "veiled" and or "masked" as to who I
am,
I thought it fair to ask the same back to you and those saying this. I
signed
my real name in my very first posting, so this is patently incorrect.
As to what info I have found on anyone is strictly my findings that's all.
We
really should let that dog sleepily lie. Don't be too overly concerned. I
wouldn't let anyone in on a thing...
I'm not looking to do a hatchet job on anyone or industry. I have my
theories
and if they don't agree with those on the board, I should not have to bear
the brunt of insults, vitriol and other electronic "violence," etc.. (I came
in
Peace.) Disagreeable peace, nonetheless peace. As I recall, I stepped in to
defend someone not on the board to do so themselves.
My theories and statements are based on many things I've read and
information
garnered after three years of research (lay OK)? I am against having both
chemicals and radioactive materials in an environment that is showing
greatly
heightened levels of disease -- whatever the cause. There is entirely too
much
support for more and more contaminants in our (here's the word I'll be
crucified
for) environment.
Isn't is ironic that I am ONLY associated with a Parkway removal program and
no other form of "environmental activism"? There is not one indication of my
being in ANY organized group or association. Does interest in my local gorge
condemn me forever in the RADSAFE world? I think it should not.
I personally don't like what I am seeing and was looking to "RADSAFE" for
any
assistance in finding the truth. PLEASE-O PLEASE, don't tell me that
everything I am reading on the Radsafe board is absolute gospel. We all know
that
factors and information change. We can debate anything you want off line,
except
politics and religion.
Since I am located in an area with this elevated rate of illness (not
me-thank goodness), I am interested in finding or eliminating any and all
possibilities. As yet, I am not convinced that the MED/AEC legacy here has
not had a
negative impact. You should not be either without knowing all about an area
or
situation. This would not be very scientific, would it? The situation in
Niagara
Falls, New York, is unique and very different from any other location
previously studied. To explain this would take many hours/days and perhaps
not
convince anyone, certainly not everyone.
IF you agree that the educated citizen can have a voice, then please allow
me
the latitude to conduct my own research (however distasteful to you or
others), make my own decisions, draw my own conclusions and choices as to
what
"science" to review, and after careful consideration, believe.
In at least one regard, I am from Missouri--I must see it to believe it.
And then it must happen five times ;*)
Cheers and regards,
Louis Ricciuti
