Re: " Scientists Say Dirty Bomb Would Be a Dud "
Dr. Rozenthal,
Consider that while people may know about spiders and
flying, some still have phobias. Do you think that
education about spiders and flying will make these
people less fearful?
Do you think that education about radiation will make
people less fearful? There will always some who will
have great fears about radiation, no matter how
educated.
I still say that education level is not directly
related to the level of fear.
