"Kinds" of memory, I see...
YOUR "kind" of memory evidently puts importance on the fleeting media chatter that any disaster produces; and for some reason, takes that chatter as an indication of real scientific opinion ... rather than a splash of for-profit-media, looking up the most sensational stories to give their sponsors "credibillity."
OUR kind of memory is not so fleeting. WE fund science meant to define the past with ever-increasing accuracy, and we don't rule out ANY relevant data -- as you do, when you bring an accusation, but then cannot credit a clear, cogent rebuttal based in the numbers.
