Another approach to public perception of risk is to simply ask the public. This was the approach of Fischoff ct al., 1977 in which a survey of the League of Women Voters in Eugene, Oregon was taken. Later studies covered 40 college students at the University of Oregon, 25 Eugene businessmen and 15 national experts in risk analysis.

A 22-year-old female college student with no remarkable medical history notes shortness of breath when she takes her daily 5-mile run, which has worsened progressively over the past 3 weeks. On review of systems, it is discovered that she has experienced intermittent sensations of chest tightness over the past 2 months that she ascribed to pollen allergies, and 3 days prior to presentation she experienced an episode of hemoptysis. Her only medication is oral contraceptives, and she reports no known drug allergies. A chest x-ray is remarkable for a 10 x 12 cm mediastinal mass.

Numerous studies of dietary protein-induced urinary calcium loss have appeared, in which the quantitative effect of protein upon calcium has been investigated. Anand and Linkswiler (12) reported that feeding a high-protein (150 g/d) diet to college students nearly doubled their calcium output compared with their output when on a low-protein (42 g/d) diet. Most of the calcium was lost in the urine with only very small increases in fecal losses.

This college student was able to successfully make MPPP from meperidine for months for his own use. However, one day while cooking up some MPPP, he was in a hurry and skipped a step or two in the synthesis process. Later, when he decided to inject himself with this latest batch of MPPP, he immediately knew something was wrong when his whole arm began to burn. Within a few days, his arms and legs became completely paralyzed, and he was unable to move or speak. His... 

Unaware of it at the time, the college student s sloppy chemistry had, in addition to synthesizing MPPP, inadvertently created some additional by-products that were very toxic. It turns out that one of the by-products, called l-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), is very toxic to neurons in...
