I agree with your premise entirely. But I tend to believe that any damage is nullified by the benefits just as the air you breathe. Id rather swallow some trace hexane than have a clogged liver. It may change, but this how I feel currently.
I think you made your point enough to warn the ignorant, yes? Going on and on about it like this suggests to me your motives are more than that. I sense you relish at the opportunity to discredit/debate MH whenever you can. Oftens times this is the only time you post or appear. I can only conclude there is a great jealousy festering inside you (and you're not the only one for sure!) that hates the fact that such an educated and knowlegeable person such as yourself doesn't have a forum, yet this Ohio hillbilly does. Its as simple as that isn't it?
Can you a least answer me this: I am dieing to know how you get through life without consuming (knowingly) any toxic chemicals?
