Re: [Mpls] Target Fired Woman for Wearing Perfume

[Annie Young]

Mostly, the world has come to a place where the 83,000 chemicals created 
since World War II are making all of us sick in some kind of way.  It is in 
our air, our water and our foods.  Yes, chemicals are around us everywhere 
and some make some people sicker than others.  There are direct 
correlations between cosmetics and perfumes and cancer.  These truly are 
public health issues and our environment is wreaking havoc on our lives in 
one way or another.

Not sure what this has to do with Minneapolis other than all of us are or 
will get sick and will die from something or another - probably in the air, 
in our water or in our food.

Of course it's gonna happen, Dan. It's a "good idea" don't you know? And if
it's a "good idea" then it must be a law, and be banned. Perfume wearers
will get over it, and if a few perfumes sellers lost their jobs,
heck.....that's OK. After all it's for the public good. After all, I don't
like perfume and I won't mind if it's banned, so it should be.
I've actually attended conferences and workshops where the wearing of
perfume and cologne has been expressly forbidden......and it's written in
black ink right there on the registration form.
My God, what has this world come to?
