Powerful article and quite a sad story. I was wondering exactly who was making these death threats but realized (duh) that they would necessarily be anonymous. One can imagine that the lawyers who were ready to make huge profits from law suits against the government would have a strong motive as well as those so-called fringe scientists whose reputations have been seriously tarnished. I just feel so thankful that somehow this issue has been resolved within the scientific community. The fact that much of the public is scientifically illiterate means this scientific reality will take a while to be accepted but at least credible media will no longer help to spread this inaccuracy--even including Oprah!
