- Dave,
-
- None of your long-winded posts have yet to say anything about "natural
- radiation." Fallout and the nuclear power cycle contribute less than 2%
- to the human dose. I have posted the numbers previously.
-
- You have also not responded to the questions that I have emailed to you,
- asking for figures to back up your erroneous and ridiculous claims. Is
- your feed to the net only one-way? I haven't seen any followup arguments.

- Apparently not.
