...past five years, over a dozen whites have escaped conviction for fatal or near-fatal assaults against unarmed, solitary blacks. Of those who have been apprehended for these crimes, several have stood trial posing as the sole perpetrators of mob acts which involved scores of people. Approximately 10 whites were arrested at East Boston's most recent demonstration-cum-riot; only five whites were arrested in connection with the firebombing of a black family in East Boston last year. In both cases, observers estimated crowds of over 200 participants...
...would have made one fatal mistake: our molecule would have been perfect. Given enough time, we would have figured out how to do this, nucleotides, enzymes and all, to make flawless, exact copies, but it would never have occurred to us, thinking as we do, that the thing had to be able to make errors...

The National Academy of Sciences objected that their figures were possibly four to ten times too high. This caveat, however, leaves intact still-imposing fatal statistics and Gofman's theory that the number of deaths is directly proportional to the number of persons exposed and the size of the dose each receives. Utility officials are fond of dismissing "minor radiation leaks" as amounting to "just a few chest X-rays." But the hitch is that...
