Is SbPb  really a Weapon of Mass Destruction or is it the boggie  man?


Hi Dave,

I believe that the jury has been in for a long time on  this matter but most
EU politicians appear to want to ignore the  verdict of science. Lead is a
phantom menace only to easily frightened  minds.

Keep the masses in constant fear of one thing or another and they are  easier
to control.

I recall again the quote one EU parliament member was reportedly heard to
say: "I am a politician, not a scientist"

That quote seems to say it all. Politicians are also controlled  also by
fear, but a different fear, a fear of loss of power stemming  from an admission of
error.

When was the last time you heard a politician admit to a mistake?

(Bill Clinton excluded... ;-)

Very best,
Joe
