Default Did they change treated lumber AGAIN?

There was no forced change. The EPA did study after study,
and did not find evidence to even put a warning (other than
the one that existed) on PT lumber. The manufacturers
voluntarily chose to change the formulation, not due to
regulation, but due to the fear of lawsuits from idiots.

I have worked with CCA for over 30 years. I have been exposed
to it for that amount of time in a manner that would cause far
more than the minimal contact that a child would ever get,
yet, I am fine. So are all of the other 400 or so carpenters
that I know or have known personally. So where did you get
your data again. How long do you think that I have to live?

Due to the fact that I was forced to be exposed to it, I have
done extensive research on the subject and I can tell you that
you are simply wrong. Unless you burn it, you have nothing to
fear from the old CCA. And neither does anyone else.

Worry about lightning. Or your salt intake. It will be far
more productive.


He got his information from a pediatrician. The fact that pediatricians
poll their young patients over gun handling by the parents is sufficient
evidence to conclude pediatricians are loons and can safely be ignored in
areas outside their experience. Inasmuch as no pediatrician anywhere has
ever experienced a medical problem originating from CCA, I'd say their
competence on this score is zero.


I asked you yesterday to list the various professions in YOUR family. No
answer yet. Why are you ashamed to tell us?
