13. New data vs old data

The information that you cite is a DECADE OLD. The information that I cited is the LATEST, MOST UP to DATE
research out of Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.

Actually the National Academy of Science BEIR reports have a general concensus that LNT OVERESTIMATES the risk, and hence it is good to use for lawmakers to use for the purpose of making regulations. However, the NAS long ago repudiated LNT as being what actually happens.

Actually, radiation transport and dose IS my specialty and I follow the scientific literature most closely.
