Steve: I am not sure you understand your chemistry as well as you flame people.
Lead metal is very different than lead compounds - you are talking about lead compounds in paint, which no one on this list is talking about. We are talking about lead metal for ballast. Tetra Ethyl lead, ****A COMPOUND****, was put into gasoline, and so forth. Lead acetate, which tastes very sweet, was put in to some paints as well as white lead oxide. I could not sell my victorian house to a family in PA because the Fed Gov (Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac)was going to back the family's loan. Why don't we stop the stupid rationalizations about lead vapors and accept that they in fact are dangerous!!!! cheers, Jim On Tue, 24 Jan 2006 08:24:48 +0000, S Meyer wrote: > At 04:01 PM 1/23/2006, JIM EALY wrote: > > Eating lead is not nearly as toxic as the vapor, if you eat too > much you'll barf. > > Wrong > Lead is most toxic when ingested.
