A researcher, with full
condemnation of the Nazi work, asserted that using the results of
certain experiments (e.g., anoxia and hypothermia) for legitimate
treatment-oriented research was at least some ethical recompense that
the victims hadn't died completely in vain.


That certainly makes sense to me. How can we possibly justify throwing
away knowledge because we don't like the way in which it was attained?

When we start making judgment calls like this, we could, for example,
demand that the U.S. dismantle its nuclear plants on the ground that
they would not exist if the Manhattan Engineer District hadn't set out
to build the bomb that killed the residents of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

all the best -- Dan Ford
