Paranoid, I know.
I would say that the developers of the system would have some reasonably qualified people behind it. What reason is there to trust 4 guys with a theory who have NOT even started their homework? 6 months ago, the answer was "no", hence the recommending for the formation of an independent panel to investigate it. Again, if that panel or another panel can come up with more than an "I Think" or "maybe", I will be glad to see it. As I said, even they were not certain so what is there to go on? If that panel can come up with the decision after doing proper investigation that it is bad, I'll be the first to say that the system has to go and now. I assume the peddlers of the system have to come up with some tests to show it is fine. Until there is something to contradict that, I am not sure what the opinions out there are but I don't think we should simply jump the gun.

Paranoid doesn't cover that. Maybe these 4 know something the rest of the world doesn't know. I don't say "no" to that. Until they have done some more work than a guess, what have we to go on? A "maybe"?

Edit: Just so we are clear, is there any issue with the millimeter wave stuff or just the backscatter X-ray?
