Superkids, Part II

Cory Doctorow has a paranoid interpretation of the recent superkids story:

To be clear -- the interesting thing about this story isn't the possibility that it's true. It clearly isn't. It's that there are doctors participating in a Big Lie regarding the ongoing tragedy of Chernobyl.

I thought that this was, at worst, a case of doctors fooling themselves based on a small sample size. (This sounds familiar somehow.) In any case, it isn't clearly false; it is merely highly improbable.
