      of course. I’m alluding to the fact that while theres been a significant improvement, we still in many places consume worrying amounts of lead.

        originally i wanted to write that we didn’t have lead exposure, but …

        It’s nice that we don’t have fumes from leaded gasoline, generally speaking–that it’s no longer the standard and most household sector products that use fuel don’t take leaded gasoline.

          Yep. I don’t hear many folks talk about Jackson, Mississippi’s lead water problem. You’d think that being the capital of Mississippi that it would be talked about more.
