A reader pointed out what may indeed be 3 fuzzy, if not downright incorrect, facts put forward in previous SMC posts on DU.
1. Doug Rokke's has a PhD in Education - apparently not in anything else.
2. Leuren Moret might have dropped out of her PhD program.
3 The 67% claim referenced might indeed be flawed.
None of the above possible errors discredits per se the validity of the general claim that spent DU munitions represent a serious threat to human health and life. It is however, as the observant reader pointed out, important to get as much of the presented facts straight so that screw-ups aren't propogated and exploited by those who would have all talk and study of this important issue of DU risks go away.

thanks for noticing!
and thanks for the link to the Uranium Medical Research Center. It looks very good.
Yes, but just a little worrisome as it appeared at a glance that their updating activities ended sometime last year, ergo a it detracts a bit from their weightiness.
