Lead ban coming

[pmueller]

What will happen is that your lead weights won't be sold a tackle shops or fishing suppliers any more.
At that point, the price of your lead used will go up.
Any weight in a tackle shop will be some sort of titanium or something like that. big bucks.
thanks for sending those emails.

Doesn't lead have to be ingested? This nanny state BS is driving me nuts, I mean come on how long are humans supposed to live anyway. I wonder if they will ever get around to the effect rubber has on the environment, think about it, where does all the rubber from the wear on a vehicles tires go? Why are there people who get lung cancer that never smoked and yet there are people who have smoked most of their lives and yet some live too a ripe old age and never get lung cancer? Could it be a cross link? For example if you eat onions and smoke tobacco that causes cancer...hmmm maybe it's not the tobacco maybe it's the rubber being inhaled from tire wear or something else. How many times have there been things that were said to be bad for you at one time only to later be discovered they are not so bad. I still feel like we are in the age of snake oil and believe it will take generations before we really know for sure what is good or bad.
