[TheForge] cadmium oopsie

[Peter Fels And Phoebe Palmer]

Gents;
Just to  kick the old dog around a little.....
First, the research is at a real basic level still and only infers 
consequences. Too soon to shit a brick.
Second, while we don't get out of it alive, cancer is the wrong way to 
go, given a choice. I say that on the authority of someone who has gone 
through 2 major surgeries and the " big guns" chemotherapy. It's 
something you really do want to avoid.
Thoid, What the research seems to indicate, is that there may be a 
specific , identyfyable mechanism  involved in  repairing mutations that 
cadmium  fucks with.
For myself, I wanna  see the numbers before making a judgement.
....Hey, don't that lead based paint  last real good? ( sorry, a 
little).............Pete F
