[quote=Anonymous]Pardon me, as a neurosurgeon, for weighing in here. Each year about 80,000 brain tumors are diagnosed in the country. There are believed to be about 700,000 people with a brain tumor at any given time. Assuming a population of 315,000,000, this means that 1 in every 450 people has a brain tumor. Spring Valley is probably about 4000-5000 people. Thus, we should expect to see 10 people in Spring Valley with a brain tumor at present. Given the focality of this issue, people living elsewhere that once lived in Spring Valley may perhaps believe their tumor is a result of their previous residence. Bald statistics already suggest approximately 10 Spring Valley residents have a brain tumor for reasons completely unrelated to toxic chemicals. The misattribution of other cases to Spring Valley serves to further paint what is likely a deeply misleading portrait of ill health. You may call me a naysayer, but these are just statistics and logic. I'm not trying to represent any side in this discussion other than facts. [/quote]
