Thanks Marshall, that's good information to have. Unfortunately for
me,
a lot of my indoor environment (counters, shelves, and cupboards in
my kitchen and bathroom) is covered with formica. It's old formica,
made
in 1973. Do you think it still releases toxins?
No I don't. I would not worry about even new Formica, any outgassing
is going to be trivial, and short lived. I would wash any melamine
dishes in a dishwasher first though before using, to eliminate any
monomers which might outgas into your food.

Maybe my
energy-inefficient habit of keeping windows open even when it's cold
outside and the heat is on has been wiser than I realized...

I would worry more about the new particle board under the formica, as
it outgasses formaldehyde......
