CBS 60 Minutes - Cassini

["Otto G. Raabe" <ograabe@ucdavis.edu>]

October 6, 1997
Davis, CA

The CBS 60 Minutes show on Cassini last night was predicatably bad. They
said Cassini has "scientists" worried. The only "scientists" that they
interviewed were John Gofman and Michio Kaku, neither of whom has a
realistic understanding of the actual risks. They refused my suggestion
that they include a knowledgeable health physicist. 

The only thing GOOD about the program segment was that it followed a really
boring segment about stupid art. Most viewers probably switched channels at
that point.
