Mike, have you noticed that apostrophes (My god, I think I spelled that right w/o a checker) are being translated into exclamation points in some mail?

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), a synthetic polymer widely used as a nonstick surface in cookware, release! s toxic pyrolysis products when exposed to excessive heat. Thirty-two budgerigars (Melopsittacus undulatus) were exposed to pyrolysis products of either heated PTFE cookware or plain aluminum cookware in a specially designed exposure chamber for given periods. Clinical signs were recorded and necropsies were done on all birds at the termination of each exposure period. The PTFE products caused acute respiratory distress and rapid death in many of the exposed birds. At necropsy, lesions were seen only in the respiratory tract--extensive pulmonary hemorrhage and congestion. PMID: 7103205 [PubMed - indexed for MEDLINE] Jan Bolen
