Re: Danish govt moves to ban phthalates in toys

You misquoted me.  I wrote what I meant and it was:

<<The toxicity of phthalates is low, period.  Any material with a "no effect
level" for daily feeding of 500 mg/kg (nearly 1% of the diet) is low in
toxicity.>> 

Accuracy matters in quotes, Charlie.

Having a Danish politician agree with you, as he usually does, on a point of
policy does not change my opinion.
