...them have carafes with narrow necks, so they cannot be properly cleaned without a brush-and not a single bottle brush was found. Most carafes are made of materials that will not stand sterilization by heat, and no hospital specified disinfection as part of the cleaning routine. In one-third of the hospitals the carafes were "cleaned" in the utility room -along with basins, bedpans and urinals.

Considering the laboratory's job (designing and making nuclear explosives), Dr. Shipman considers the record "fabulously good." People should get over the exaggerated fear of radiation, he insists. "We're going to have to live with it a long time-more and more as time goes on. It should not be invested with such an aura of mystery. You're just as dead if you get hit by a taxi...
...five men he sent letters asking: "If it would be convenient, could you possibly send me a short statement on your participation in the battle? Yours very truly, Bill Frazer." Addressees: Admiral William F. Halsey, in 1944 commander of the U.S. Third Fleet; Vice Admiral Thomas C.
