RE: In Flight Radiation

["Brock, Diana" <dbrock@sandia.gov>]

At first I was going to keep my mouth shut about this issue, because I am
very opinionated and I probably offend a lot of people with my comments, but
when no one spoke out about the truly bizarre nature of this discussion, I
just had to say something.
People, where do we draw the line? Pilots aren't going to stop flying
because of natural radiation. All this discussion and subsequent studies
will do is cause the price of an airline ticket to go up. The airline will
be forced to do this when their pilots demand more money for the hazard they
have to fly in every day. Lets completely ignore the fact that if they land
wrong it can be very painful. Stop looking for anti-nuke ammunition.
Anti-nukes have enough as it is.
