There are **NO** regulations in China. Haven't you been reading the

used as a sweetener in toothpaste, permitted by LAW! They use lead-based
paint on toys sold to the US.

Where have you been?

Jon

They have regulations, they just ignore them if it'll make money for the
friends of those in high places (see "Bush Administration").

Conveniently ignoring the fact that it was Bill Clinton, not G.W. Bush, who
ensured that China was awarded "most favored nation" trading status...


I really should have left out the political gouge. Oh well.
