Metal dust causes cancer and Alzheimer !

I was under the impression electromagnetic radiation eminating from a television set is the primary cause of health problems.

Best Regards Tom.

Actually, its living that's the biggest of cause of death.

Nothing that a tin foil beanie won't protect you from.

Here's the real culprit-

Beware! It's all around us!!

By now it's even inside us!!!

That gives me an idea. What are the scariest names you can come up with for rum and beer? :-)

I bet you wore a helmet on the short yellow schoolbus too!

These are not bad outcomes compared to the alternative. Metalworking deficiency syndrome includes depression, lethargy, mental atrophy, loss of motor skills (not working with motors, ya know), and stress resulting in consumption, decay and a very nasty disposition.

Ohmyyes, one cannot be too careful! I would advocate a Kant-Twist clamp on your nose, a sock duct-taped into your mouth to filter air, and boxing gloves to prevent transdermal absorption of metal dust residue that certainly resides on your keyboard.

Only because it tells me to kill people.

I can vouch for the fact that years of inhaling metal dust does nothing to your memory.

Not only that, but I can vouch for the fact that inhaling metal dust does nothing to your memory.

WhAt ?

Hey, that was funny. Especially good was the quote:

"Research conducted by award-winning U.S. scientist Nathan Zohner concluded that roughly 86 percent of the population supports a ban on dihydrogen monoxide."

Does anyone here believe that 86 percent of the population even knows what dihydrogen monoxide is ???

Environmental impact quiz for the general public:

Do you believe that dextrose is a public safety hazard ?

A. Yes, I am tired of uncaring companies adding dextrose to my foods without concern for my health.

B. No, I blindly believe that companies know what is best for me.

C. What ?

Nope. When you cook in a microwave oven, your food stores up the microwaves and release them inside you. Makes you radioactive.

I saw it on the internet so it must be true.

What about cell phones. Don't they give you ear cancer?

Not to mention the increased size of your bank account if you avoid metalworking, and we all know that fat, whether on us or anywhere else, is unhealthy. Keeps you awake at night worrying about it.
