[ RadSafe ] "Boy's Cancer Blamed on Millstone."

[Sandgren, Peter]

Today's Hartford Courant and other CT newspapers are reporting "Boy's
Cancer Blamed on Millstone."  There are some familiar names mentioned in
the article, including Dr. Caldicott and Nancy Burton, a former lawyer
who is active in the Connecticut Coalition Against Millstone. The
article states that the mother swam near the plant during her pregnancy,
and that they did not link her swims to the cancer until they saw a
public TV broadcast put on by the "coalition."  I feel sorry for the
family, but it's unfortunate that they've seized upon the power plant in
their desperation.  The link is below:
