Re: In Really Depressing News

The people at the Washington Toxics Coalition (they’re anti–toxic things, though their name sounds pro–) are looking out for the babies: Just today they launched Safe Start for Kids, “a guide to choosing children’s products free of harmful chemicals… [including] personal care items like lotions, shampoos, and sunscreen.”

They’re also having a rally for toxic-free toys (or is that against toxic ones?) in Olympia on Feb. 7th. A 20-foot-tall rubber ducky (presumably unintoxicated) will be present. QUACK.

The noun form of the word is TOXINS, not toxics. You'd think they'd consult a dictionary before printing up the organization's letterhead.

Must be the fumes....
