UW, no cheap shots on my part. I have no interest in taking shots of any sort against anyone, unless they happen to be wrong. What I told you was directly out of the B&W training films that I have seen. You pointing out that radiation is a major hazard (which I agree with) does not change the fact that in the 50s it was downplayed to the public. You will have a better time convincing me that little was known about radiation hazard in those days, but you'd have to back that up. If you trust the government, then you will believe as their knowledge improved, so did their warnings to the public in subsequent decades. If you don't trust them, then you will believe they changed their story because alternative sources of info made it unfeasible for them to lie as much.
