I don't say you must use lead, I just get irritated when we pick on this one but not the millions of daily hazards that we will overlook that is far worse for us. the us army didn't pull me out of combat because they were concerned over lead poisioning in 1971.

as a research guy you probably know they relate Alzhiemers and other serious diseases to the chemicals in our processed foods too. all I,m saying is if were going to attack lead lets attack the even more commonly used products in our daily lives like, more people die from traffic accidents than lead poisoning, but no one will quit driving right Tc
With all due respect yea, that's the old excuse. We live with all kinds of hazards what's another one or why don't you go after this or that too. Tell that to all the kids drinking that water filled with lead in Michigan or my deceased dad who worked in shipyards during WWll and fell victim to asbestos poisoning.

The point is we minimize our risks where possible and make sane decisions kind of the risk benefit principle.

Sorry for hijacking the thread for a bit.
