Franz an other Radsafers are correct:

I , for one disagree on the wide spreading of personnal information. We know
that this site may be monitored by whoever and the info may be copied in a
newspaper for exemple...

But indeed, from a scientific point of you this is a very real life
situation with real consequence described in very precise details.


In a sense, I am not surprise to see so many people in favor, as I see more
and more what is called "real tv" with real arrestations, car chases
tornados etc.

Again, the issue is : Should we spread personnal info so EASILY (we are
talking about the WEB here).

If you want to know about this type of info, I think that we all know WHO to
contact.

My opinion.

Franz,

I respect your opinion but the data is needed for possible future accidents
and the information may be used to help treat others later on.  I understand
that these individuals are humans with families and our coworkers but the
information we have from the past, the information that is being used to
help these victims, has come from other accidents.  We truly learn from our
mistakes.  I suppose the way we look at the data has to do with our mindset
regarding the information.

RADSAFERs,

I am now going to post something which in the mind of a few RADSAFERs might
be a "sacrileg", but hopefully will be in accordance with the so called
"silent majority":
