I got this from Connett, the anti-fluoride college

professor/activist.

I posted here awhile ago about sulfuryl fluoride - it's a food

warehouse fumigant that leaves incredible amounts of ionic fluoride

residue on foods - a tablespoon of powdered eggs has the equivalent

amount of fluroide as the amount used to brush one's teeth, which has

a warning that if you swallow that amount you should call poison

control!

------------------

We hope you will sign on to the statement (deadline 5 pm today!)

being sent to Obama's transition team by Beyond Pesticides and the

Pesticide Action Network (PAN).

This statement includes a section (see below) that should concern

anyone fighting fluoride exposure. It is calling for a halt to the

use of sulfuryl fluoride as a fumigant on food in warehouses, mills

and processing plants. This fumigant is leaving fluoride residues on

hundreds of foodstuffs. FAN has spent the last 7 years appealing its

use and exposing the totally bogus science used by the EPA to justify

the food tolerances it is allowing.

If President-elect Obama meant what he said when he indicated he

wanted honest science back into government this would be a great

place to start.

Suggested Comment:

I support the recommendation for EPA to Issue a stay, or immediate

suspension, of all food-uses of sulfuryl fluoride pending a full

evidentiary hearing.

Please do this before 5 pm today. Pass this message along to as many

people as you can reach. And send us a short email to us simply

saying " I have added my name, " so we can keep track of the numbers.

Many, many thanks.
