Dear Mr Baumbaugh, or Joel, whatever you want to be called,

Thank you really very much for your comment. It shows more than clearly
that it is necessary what I try to put forward to RADSAFE, namely to
consider ethical questions and to clearly distinguish them from scientific
questions. To know blood date about somebody who is thousands of miles away
and suffers from an accident is for my opinion unacceptable. If you like
that - this is your problem. I have asked to stop the distribution of these
data - nobody is forced to do that, please read Tosh's reply. I can assure
you that I will not delete any messages before reading them. Why should I?
I am not that sensitive that I cannot stand criticisms. 

And I am not that sensitive that I could not stand such insultations like
you put forward. Regarding your unexcusable comment of a "former
countryman": I was born 1944 and my mother was forced to tell the
authorities that she did not know what the father of her child was.
