Bell's research sounds fascinating - I wonder if it leads to any suggestions to getting over the moral panics more quickly? They're almost never productive, and they harm far more than they help. I'm thinking especially of the political angle, because in the current arrangement, there's no serious incentive for politicians to resist moral panics, and you could argue that there's a significant incentive for them to encourage moral panics (e.g. Michelle Bachmann's endless madness).
