  • "Test of the Linear-No Threshold Theory of Radiation Carcino-genesis for Inhaled Radon Decay Products'' by B. L. Cohen, Health Physics 68, No. 2, pp 157-174 (1995). This is a detailed research paper showing that lung cancer mortality decreases as inhaled radon increases for the exposure levels found in most American homes.

    The linear-no threshold hypothesis is dead - along with many lung cancer victims that were unfortunate enough to live in localities with low background radiation. Also dead are very large numbers of marginalized Americans for whom the loss (Cohen estimates) of over $250 billion in unnecessary radiation protection expenditures - not to mention the enormous cost from reduced development of nuclear power -has been fatal. This radiation myth has had grisly consequences.
  • "Eugene Wigner (1902-1995)'' by F. Seitz, Nature 373, p 288 (1995). Eugene Wigner's work helped initiate the nuclear age and helped to preserve American freedom through both development of nuclear technology and protective civil defense technology.
  • "It's the Battery Stupid'' by S. F. Brown, Popular Science, pp 62-78, February (1995). This gives a review of limitations on current technology for the production of electric cars.
  • "Poking Holes in NASA's Latest Ozone Scare'' by K. M. Towe, Citizen Outlook 10, No. 1, p3 (1995) from Committee for a Constructive Tomorrow, P. O. Box 65722, Washington, DC 20035 and "A Case Study in Shaky Science'' by S. F. Singer, Insight, p 37, January 30 (1995) report credibility depletion in the ozone mania industry.
  • Washington Legal Foundation Legal Studies Division 1995 Publications Catalog available from WLF, 2009 Massachusetts Avenue, N.W., Washington, DC 20036. There is a wealth of information and ammunition for pro-technologists in WLF publications.
  • "Liberty's Champion'' by L. H. Rockwell, The New American 11, No. 3 , p. 42 (1995) in memorial to Murray N. Rothbard whose death is a substantial loss to the cause of economic freedom. Liberty needs theoreticians, and Murray Rothbard was one of the best.
