That really gets me that Dr. Alonso doesn't believe water should be examined further. She's basing her assumption on the DEPs test of only 50 out of 17,000 parcels. None were randomly selected and known brain tumor victims were excluded. Also, the strongest link to brain tumors, ionized radiation, was not completely studied, and many substances connected to brain tumors were not included. Shouldn't they have met with the DEP and selected those substances that have been linked to brain tumors first before commencing the study? I asked for the list of substances before they began testing, and they would not give it to me beforehand. More than the state of the children's water, they are more interested in the amount of soy consumed by the child, the child's vaccinations, and other theories that have not been proven. They are obviously trying to appease these families, not find an actual cause. I do hope real scientists will descend upon this community and help us find answers.
