Hmm ... it's not just a website, though; at least not to us. Trying to preach the errors of our ways won't do much, so why bother? Nevermind, don't answer that. It'll just get ugly and nobody wants to see that. Sooo ... enjoy the pics and don't read the comments, it's not that difficult to do.

Did you read the description of this facility at the beginning of the photo album, Nancy?

"The most infamous aspect of this facility is the testing of radioactive substances on unknowing participants in the late 1940's, according to declassified documents from the US Department of Atomic Energy. The tests were performed in conjunction with Harvard University, MIT, and was sponsored in part by the Quaker Oats Company. A total of 74 patients were encouraged to participate in the experiment under the guise of joining a "science club", where the boys were fed iron and calcium enriched meals with "radioisotope tracers" that were used to track absorption.

The doses given were very low and doubtfully caused any injury to the subjects, but the troubling moral dilemma exists in the fact that neither the children nor their parents were given knowledge about the testing."
