19. Cancer researchers don't repeatedly harp on a single NON-cause of cancer ad nauseam.

They search for causes and cures.

If cancer researchers persistently expended more resources to argue that overhead power lines were NOT a cause of cancer rather than searching for what ARE the causes, and they were backed up by a chorus of shrill minion defenders, then I would want to know what the real dynamic behind the scenes was. I would want to know if they gave a damn about the cancer sufferers, or if they were just covering someone's ass against a flood of liability lawsuits.
