[CPEO-MEF] Risk Assessment?

[meuser@mapcruzin.com]

Hello - 

The latest Rachel's Environment & Health BiWeekly says that at 
the present rate it could take as long as 85,00 years to figure out 
the synergistic effects of cominations of 3 of only 10% of the 
80,000 chemicals now in use. This is unacceptable. Some call for 
invoking the "precautionary principle." First, read the newsletter.
