has anyone mentioned the death last year in a plane crash of Dr Paul Norton, chief scientist at Porton Down for chemical and biological weapons defense research?

Here's the article- I have to apologize for misquoting his name, it's Dr Paul Norman, not Norton:
Medical Society spokesman Steve Heilig said Lull was a thoughtful scientist with a long military background. He favored nuclear power as a solution to global warming, but he was so passionately opposed to the development of proposed "bunker buster" nuclear weapons that he co-sponsored a resolution at the California Medical Association House of Delegates opposing the technology. The resolution did not pass.

Sharing Our Specialized Knowledge

Active community participation as a physician, beyond the provision of one-on-one patient medical care, always seemed natural. My concept of "physician" includes being involved with all aspects of our social and political environment. This seems particularly needed today, when our political institutions significantly impact the traditional doctor-patient relationship.
Our privileged position as physicians in our society provides us with a powerful voice in community affairs. When I was the senior officer in a small community of Army families in the Marin Headlands, I learned a lot about the inherent community respect and powerful voice that can be derived from just being a physician. This is particularly true when there is need for our specialized medical knowledge. The Army offered several unique opportunities to utilize my specialized training in nuclear medicine. In my role as the Nuclear Medicine Consultant to the U.S. Army Surgeon General, I became involved with emergency medical teams preparing to respond, if needed, to nuclear weapons accidents. Several times a year, I actually taught classes about the medical aspects of such accidents at the DOD's Inter-Service Nuclear Weapons School.

PBDEs - A Story Of
Conversion From
Skeptic To Crusader
By Robert J. Lull, MD

This is the story of my evolution from a scientific skeptic to a strong supporter for a specific "environmental" cause-the phasing out of the chemical class called PBDEs in California due to their negative impacts upon human development. PBDEs are used extensively as a fire retardant in consumer products. This is a short story of one scientific skeptic's conversion to become an advocate on this issue.

Dr. Robert Lull's Call
For BSE Testing Of
All US Cattle
SFGate.com Open Forum
By Dr. Robert Lull, Steve Heilig

Mad cow disease remains a worrying mystery. Meat from infected animals can infect consumers with prions, which cause variant Creutzfeldt- Jakob disease, a progressive degeneration of the brain that is always fatal.
Mad cow disease (the common term for bovine spongiform encephalopathy) is caused by prions, the infectious misshapen proteins discovered by University of California researcher Stanley Prusiner, who received a Nobel Prize in Medicine for his groundbreaking work. Prusiner has referred to BSE-related diseases as "new, strange and scary."
Unfortunately, it seems that some governmental officials and agricultural leaders are not so worried about the threat that prion diseases such as BSE present -- not only to animals, but to humans as well. A human outbreak of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, caused by eating prion-contaminated beef from cattle with BSE, killed approximately 150 people in England in the 1990s. At that time, up to a third of British herds were found to be contaminated before the infection was controlled.
