Scientists Jailed Because Their Warnings Weren't Strident Enough.

A friend told me about this story. Immersed in writing my next book I haven't been paying a lot of attention to the news so I had to look this up. Some scientists in Italy failed to give a strong enough warning and as a result were sentenced to six years in prison. If this trend continues no one will want to serve as advisers. I guess the next people to go to jail will be weather forecasters who fail to predict a tornado touching down.
