This phony accusation is perpetrated by lowering the amount of lead allowed
in a human each year until a crisis is imagined. Some lead is normal in
humans.  Compare the current levels with 1920 and see where we are at. Lead
is in the ground to start with where water can leach across it forever.
Global warming --- No global cooling--- no, warming -- cooling --warming.
Whatever, just be scared because the sky is falling. Tod I would bet money
you are virulently anti second amendment also. -- Bill --

  Lead  is  a  particularly  nasty  substance,  once  it  gets  into the
   environment because it is difficult to remove and
   can  find  its  way  into  our  bodies in numerous ways.  The negative
   effects on the neurological system, including
   the  brain,  are  long-term  and  irreversible.  By one
   account, 32% of the children in LA are
   lead-poisoned.   from the lead
   in  gasoline,  paint,  dust  and  soil containing lead, drinking water
   (from lead pipes and solder), incinerated print
   and  paper  products  and  lead batteries, to name just a few.  By one
   account, 32% of the children in LA are
   lead-poisoned.  Maine and other states have passed laws to ban the use
   of lead weights for fishing due to the
   effect  on  bird  populations  (like  Loons)  that  tend to ingest the
   weights.  You can make light of the situation
   and  joke around about not eating your balance weights but this is not
   really something to disregard.  Brain
   damage  is  not  funny, even if you are talking about Congress and the
   present Administration.
