<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif;color:black">An extraordinary article in today’s New York Times by Lisa Friedman, outlines how a proposed U.S. E.P.A. policy “…would require that scientists disclose all
 of their raw data, including confidential medical records, before the agency could consider an academic study’s conclusions.”<u></u><u></u></span></p>

 the support of many industrial groups (eg. chemical companies).<u></u><u></u></span></p>
