TRIPLE FRAK!!! =>Rocket Fuel In Water. EPA Sez, "What, me worry?"

--Read More In: Better Living Through Chemistry | News | Noise

-Probably won't do anything to get it out of the water or pass any laws that "represent a meaningful opportunity for reducing risks to human health" -yay.

Wait, what was that about buying a really good home water filter?

I could fantasize about the Rocket Fuel functioning like Enzyte, Extenze or even Viagra for me, but apparently Perchlorate creates a Rocketboom in your thyroid and not in your pants.

Why does this EPA ~inaction remind me of a Wikipedia quote associated with Bisphenol A?
'David Michaels, who served in the Clinton Adminstration told the Washington Post that "Tobacco figured this out, and essentially it's the same model … If you fight the science, you're able to postpone regulation and victim compensation, as well. As in this case, eventually the science becomes overwhelming. But if you can get five or 10 years of avoiding pollution control or production of chemicals, you've greatly increased your product."'




Who's affected the most? -Again it's the babies. :(

crap.

I'm kinda out of things to say right now.
