I can understand your passion for that issue since you knew someone that was effected by it but it happens to be true that lead paint is not very high on anyones radar since it has been banned for so many years.
I think you were out of line to use terms such as "idiotic" and "absurd" to discribe my point of view just because you disagree with me.And to say that I value "pride" over a post on the forum more than childrens health is a little over the top and is not in line with the tone of this forum.
Not to hijack the thread,but aspartame is indeed a danger....which you could see for yourself if you would bother to reseach it.I had a family member who developed severe migraines.She lived a healthy lifestyle,good diet, excerise with no tobacco or alcohol use.....But she drank 4 Diet Cokes a day.After some reseach,I found that aspartame was developed as an ant poison and was denied approval for use in food by the FDA until some political wrangling took place.
Bottom line...she gave up ther aspartame and the migraines disappeared.
Google up "dangers of aspartame" and see for yourself.You may think it it's all baloney and that is your right, but there is no need to be insulting to make your point.
