If you don't want to see the same corrections of misinformation then YOU do the job of correcting the falsehoods.

As far as Jacobson's facts being "corrected" - that simply did not happen. You certainly led the charge with the claim, but the actual fact was nothing but another myth of the nuclear fan club.

Jacobson's work stands as solid and your bitching about "spam" stands as the vacuous whining that it is.
