I agree that much of the asbestos scare is hype, but I think you
had better check some of your facts.

I know here, that the insulators' union has the largest retirement
fund. Not many of them collect. Aunt Irene has asbestosis from
shaking out and washing hubbie's clothes after coming home from
the shipyard. He had no asbestosis, he worked with it wet.

Is 3% Vinyl on the lower end of asbestos poisoning?

100% Asbestos isn't posionous! You can EAT it.

There is not now nor has there ever been any observable or
detectable health
risk from any commercial product containing asbestos, in use,
application,
removal, manufacture, transport, or anything else you could do
with an
asbestos-containing product.

This includes brake mechanics who spend YEARS breathing asbestos
dust from
their work and insulators who have likewise spent YEARS blowing
the stuff
around.
