Agreed ... the vast number of cross-references in his article quite effectively mask the fact that he is being extremely selective and not necessarily up-to-date in his use of information. Two that I spotted in my brief skim of the article were:
1. The Selby rail crash - due entirely to one stupid car driver, although this angry twerp places it in a context which implies it is further evidence of the systemic failures that caused Potters Bar and Hatfield.
2. MMR and Autism - One single piece of highly questionable research made a link between the triple vaccine and the development of autistic symptoms in children. This was always a minority view, despite the obvious glee the Daily Mail took in championing the cause. It has since been shown up, on more than one occasion, for the nonsense it is.
I'm afraid I have little time for rants that are incompletely researched and/or fail to be in any way constructive.
