I have my facts straight, how about you?

I will accept your apology although I think you have other issues with this and you were just trying to shut me up.

Is your head on straight? You claimed that lead causing brain damage was a fallacy that lead to banning leaded gas. You are wrong on both points. Leaded gas was gotten rid of because it is damaging to the federally mandated catalytic equipment on cars and the Forbes article you linked only reinforces the positive effects of getting lead out of childrens’ environment.

I am employed in the heaviest lead using industry in the world and I have not once heard the slightest intimation that lead it not damaging. Instead I’ve been regaled by the old hands with what they have seen with lead poisoning cases.
