   Well, speaking of behavior alteration, am not sure if you’d read this before, but it talks about how lead content in gasoline might have altered the behavior of people in the lead-polluted world:

   That’s an very interesting site, Jon. Re lead in fuel: that would aptly explain the continuous rise of crime rate in urban areas.

   That’s why they say, wrapping daing in old newspapers shouldn’t be banned. Until someone said they use a different, and non-toxic, kind of ink these days. Who’s lying and who’s not is anyone’s guess.

   Dear sir/madam:

   Based on USA Food & Drug Administration web page,

   http://www.fda.gov/ora/oasis/2/ora_oasis_i_03.html

   http://www.fda.gov/ora/fiars/ora_import_ia4502.html

   Eng Bee Tin ube hopia and some Philippines products
   are banned in the USA,for various violations.

   The consumers have a right to know the reasons
   for the ban by US FDA and the stand of Philippines
   government agency on the issue, especially on the
   safety of food color/additives for children.

   Truly,

   Concerned Consumer

   for food safety for children, pls check :
