I note the article claims "elevated" lead levels. So I'm guessing there is lead levels recorded in all kids that way. Which wouldn't surprise as lead deposites are found all over Oz. And its aluminium country up there, so if the lead don't get them, the aluminium will...

"...Aluminum has been long known to be neurotoxic, with mounting evidence that chronic exposure is a factor in many neurological diseases, including dementia, autism, and Parkinson's disease..." . Study: The Alzheimer's-Aluminum Direct Link.

From what i hear about the effects of fuel sniffing and where it leeds to, the lead is the least of them kids worry's.....
