Re: Today's Aol Welcome -What You Should Know About Chemicals...

[Guest guest]

Very interesting, ! Check out the info below. It is a 1991 Health Risk

study by the EPA about the most common chemicals found in 31 fragrance

products!!!!!! That's 16 years ago and those chemicals are still in our

products!!!!!!!

I was thinking last night about chemicals and such. I remember my dad

wearing lots and lots of aftershave. He always smelled so good. Even

though I had allergies back then, I never had a reaction to his

aftershave. My conclusion on these thoughts were, that these days

there are so many chemicals, additives and such added to such

products, this is one reason why we are so senistive to purfumes and

such. Perhaps dads aftershave did not contain the chemicals that

aftershaves do now...no proof, no data, no experement on this end,

just a theory.

Yes it is very sad that this info was out in 1991. I was still ok

then. So listen to this I have been staying unfortunately with inlaws

for some time because this illness has caused such financial

problems. They don't listen and use the fragranced laundry products,

etc. I am stuck in the bedroom most of the time.

So now they have been working in the garage doing something to clean

computer chips with acetone and they heat it up or something. They

only keep the heat on 55 degrees and I am freezing. But now that it

is getting colder they are bringing the garage operation in the house

so they say. They haven't done it yet but I asked about it if they

are going to exhaust it outside some way. My mother in law says no

they don't exhaust it, and no one has died yet. I really have no

support system. I have my husband, but he never reads any of this

information and he also has chemical problems but we can't move yet.

I was full of life and had so many friends and family before all of

this but now am very alone and scared about all of this. It is

criminal what we have to deal with because of our government.

Regarding your in-laws computer chip project - is this something to do with

breaking down old computers? If so, you may want to share this article with

them:

http://www.ban.org/E-waste/technotrashfinalcomp.pdf or

http://tinyurl.com/38vcj7

It is " Exporting Harm, The High Tech Trashing of Asia " ; about bad health effects

from computer component recycling. If that is what they are doing, this may

change their mind about the project - because people are being poisoned.

Be sure to read the part starting on page 15 - China: The Story of Guiyu - it

gives a detailed account of the hazards and page 20 describes processing the

chips with acid to recover metals. I hope you can talk them out of this - or get

out of there if not!
