probably was an inferior pencil anyway.
So I guess it’s “a good thing” if there’s no lead in my pencil?
I don’t think so.
But then, don’t ask my ex.
Most of the world should be seriously thinking about the possibility of boycotting the ‘08 Summer Olympics in Beijing mostly for China’s continued problems with poisons and toxic materials in many of their products that they continue to distribute all over the world. Many people and animals continue to be harmed to killed all over the world as well as within China by such products. This still doesn’t even include the continued human rights violations that are still happening within China including those which actor Richard Gere keeps bringing up.
A year or so ago, we imported a couple pallets of pencils for a one off thing for a function. They came out of India. The cost was 1/11th of a penny per pencil.
I still can’t figure out how you can buy raw materials and make a pencil(no eraser though) for 1/11th of a penny.
Now I know, they probably made from Toxic waste.
They were all warped and crappy(didn’t write dark enough) so we ended up dumping them.
