That's how it works, slowing chip away at the stones of the building and sooner or later the building will fall. They don't even have to touch the foundation that it is built on.

This same nonsense is coming to New York ( duh ! )also in a slightly different form, for now. The Department of Environmental Conservation announced recently that the DEC officers would now be using "green" ammunition in their duty guns. They went on about how much less lead would be in the environment from training and qualifications etc. And how the increased cost is worth it for the children, don't you know.

Seems to me that the people of Massachusetts are/will be getting what they want. Criminitley Batman, none of the rest of us vote there. I do however, feel bad about the few there who are still normal. They should move. BvT

Move?
I did just that leaving the Socialist Nanny State of Taxachusetts for NC.
Best decision I ever made.:-D

Maybe I am wrong but didn't the lead come from the ground? Lets explain that to people. Gianni

Bingo! you win the prize
I participated in an environmental site assessment of a skeet range.
There was TONS of lead in the soil.
None of it leached below the surface.
Nothing in groundwater.
You can chew on lead shot and virtually none will end up in your blood.

I am told - though it may be another "urban legend" - that a Southern California coastal community is suing their Police Department for polluting the environment with lead at their duty training range. Any word on this, Al?
There's a major natural deposit of asbestos in one part of the Northern California Coast Range. What are they gonna do, dig up and dispose of the whole mountain???
For years I've been bugging the Environmental Prevention Administration to put CO-2 filters on all the US volcanoes, but no action as yet; them volcanoes must have a POW'FUL lobby in Disneyland-on-the-Potomac!

All I can say is that my grandfather ( X Texas ranger ) died at the ripe old age of 93 still carrying 9 lead proiectils in his body. One since childhood. the last was over 45 years before he died. Well if that is what it takes to reach 93 maybe the A M A should start doing some HONEST studies on lead in the human body and we can all reach at least 93 years of age. BWB :castmine:

what scares me is I know NY is soon to follow suit.
Arizona Game & Fish Comm. held their meeting yesterday and told them they were not interested in their lead ban.
