Jay-- Just as Paul raised a lot of question I had, I found myself nodding
as I read your thoughts on the federal standards note that Joe passed
around.
What I found most disturbing was the pretty clear indication that this
measure was sponsored by industries whose "research" is indistinguishable
from PR (tobacco is only one example) and that the higher standards talk
was fluff. Note that the sponsors don't make any move toward funding their
mandate, which would be enormously expensive. Hell, they don't fund even the
first round of research on lots of important issues.
Consumptives beware!
