  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.
