[SEL] scary... you can still buy asbestos...

[Mark Shulaw]

Hi Paul,
  I don't see a scary problem with the use of Asbestos. Now that we know 
what the problem is and what it does to the Lung we can figure out ways to 
manufacture and utilize it safely. We do it with any product thats unsafe 
for human contact in an improper way. If the Chinese has done this yet who 
knows, but we can if we want to. Some uses for asbestos might have to be 
eliminated or the way its used modified so it does not cause a problem but 
it can be used safely.  Untold millions or billions have been around it 
thru the centuries and extremely few have been troubled by it, so it would 
not be too difficult to make changes to a known superior product in many 
uses to make it safe overall.  AnyThing improperly used will cause harm or 
worse.

                                        TTYL,  Mark
