Nit Picking?

This might appear to be a nit picking thread to some

I feel it is important to keep a record & highlight any missing credits when work by #DRASTIC and its team members like myself (which was freely done for the common good) is used by others.

What do you think?

SUMMARY

To the Credit of the Good Senators

#DEFUSE mentioned 35 Times

#DRASTIC mentioned 10 times

(albeit only in the foot notes)

@gdemaneuf mentioned 7 times

@BillyBostickson mentioned 4 Times

@TheSeeker268 mentioned once

SADLY

No other refs to DRASTIC researchers 🤨

MAKE SURE you read the 302 page Report!

It is a cutting edge analysis of most of what we know to date regarding the possibility of a lab leak

Remember this report is built on the contributions & hard work of several members of #DRASTIC often uncredited
