As a final comment, I would like to suggest the names of some interested radiation scientists whom you may wish to contact in relation to additional independent assessments of Bikini: Kar] Z.

Raymon Fosberg, botanist, Smithsonian Institution, (202) 381-5559 (Fosberg, thé long-term editor of the Atoll Research Bulletin, accompanied Conard and the Brookhaven team during their 1957 annual Marshalls survey after the "Bravo" test. When he noticed abnormal vegetation patterns as he flew over Rongolap Atoll- and which he later confirmed in a field study--he speculated that these were caused by the fallout from "Bravo." When he tried to publish his findings, Conard attempted to suppress his article on radiationdamaged plants in the Marshalls. After having his article rejected by Science, Fosberg had it published in Nature tn 1959. He maintains that Conard tried to cover up information about the fallout damage from "Bravo." Fosberg says he would like to be included in an ———independent survey of radiation damage in the Marshalls. lf I can be of further help to you with regard to your Bikinian Clients, please feel free to contact me at any time.
