Peer Review 1

    I reviewed Ben Barnett's QRG on the Fukushima nuclear disaster.  I chose Ben's project because his controversy presents many of the same challenges as mine.  Both are fairly technical and thus require significant explanation of complex topics to appeal to a wide audience.
    Reading Ben's QRG reminded me of how I need to better explain the technical concepts behind the Time Crystal.  It's easy to miss some critical piece of background that most readers won't already know.  Specifically, I noticed several statistics in Ben's text that I had no prior understanding of.
    Ben's QRG quickly and gracefully outlined the impact of his controversy and laid out the stakes.  I need to work on this within my own QRG; as it stands, I don't effectively illustrate the the impact of the topic.  Ben also gives the entire pieces a subtle narrative flow that helps pull the reader through.
