We knew, or suspected most of that. But check this:

"Some Chinese experts, however, suspect that the culprit is a RADIOACTIVE
phosphorus substance - phosphogypsum - that is banned for construction use
in the U.S. but has been used by Chinese manufacturers for almost a decade."

Fortunately, much of this Chinese drywall was used during the housing boom
to accommodate zero-down-payment, sub-prime mortgage holders.


It cant be any worse than Homosote board, I bought some of that to
sound insulate a furnace room (it looked dense, heavy and quiet). It
smelled like wet newspapers in sewer water, I had to rip it out a few
hours after I installed it. Apparently it's actually made out of
paper fiber processed through recycled water, they must have used
ransid water with my batch.
