Carpet fibers are in the air of every room with carpet, they land on food and are in the air they breath, of course people are more exposed to synthetic carpet fibers then thry are to a billionth of a percent of Roundup in processed cereal?

Drive a car in a garage shut it off close the door; start a car in winter and open the door as you put it in reverse, and people are exposed to many times the concentration of fumes that are not good for us, compared to a billionth of a percent of Roundup in their processed cereal.

If we are concerned about exposure to unnatural things, should we have a balanced, equal, healthy valuation to look at the relative dangers we are around?

Or, should we just harp on one topic, only one danger, over and over and over to the exclusion of all else and assume that we need zero tolerance on that one issue period?

There used to be talk and studies about the effects of cell phone transmitters a few millimeters from your brain or groin; but people love their technology too much nothing ever came of it, no one cared.

Cigarettes seem to be proven to be pretty harmful over the long haul, I believe 20% of the country still uses them quite happily?

Several decades ago a fella came up from Tennessee to visit me, he was very much on a anti pesticide kick, he wanted to get away from it all. While he was visiting me, he pulled out his tobacco pouch and a paper and rolled his own cig and lit it up. Little while later his wife mentioned well he does use Roundup up and down the driveway and around the buildings and such. But all the rest oft he 2 hours, it was how bad chemicals were for us and we should stop using them.

The message gets really confusing when you say carpet fibers don't get in the food, or someone says chemicals are bad for us while puffing a cig.

It seems there is a lot more emotion and belief and a desire to control others, than there is any real issue that is being followed?

And so I'm left to become a disbeliever in anything being said.

I do believe in moderation, and being happy, and enjoying life.

Paul
