"Now I'm not saying that I want to outlaw brakes, I really like a heathy set of discs to haul me down from 80~100mph and I don't care if I'm getting a dose of those fibers or not. The world is full of crap floating around in the air."
But you can no long choose to use better more heat resistant brakes that include high levels of asbestos because you wouldn't just be assuming a risk for yourself - you would be putting others at risk.
If a sign is not posted that informs of smoking inside, it will be readily apparent once one enters.
And while asbestos might be outlawed, are we really sure that the cure isn't worse than the disease?
We aren't. We can speculate, but only time will tell.
In the final analysis, the number ONE cause of death is: LIFE!
