I understand that the advances in science can scare some of the older generation so this might not seem reasonable to some of the more mature posters here. I understand that in your youth, nothing killed you. You could smoke, lick lead-painted walls, drink from lead pipes and live in asbestos-laden houses without any trouble at all. It's only this namby-pamby generation with their new-fangled knowledge and research and science that suffer from ills such as asbestosis, lung cancer etc. Then again, we've not got polio and other diseases because someone did some research and advanced things on a little.
As a father of a young one, I am more than happy to read of such research. Pick something else to be outraged about, like the rising price of Worthers Originals.
