The NUMBER of free ions is DRASTICALLY less when the solute is calcium fluoride as opposed to sodium fluoride.

Before we go any further, let's make sure we are on the same page. We are discussing the supposed differences in "natural" vs "supplemental" fluorides. Correct?

IOW, I say that since there is naturally occurring fluoride around the levels we see added to water supplies, and we don't see sickness in those areas, fluoride isn't dangerous at those levels. You say that there is a difference between the predominantly natural CaFL and the artificial NaFl.

Do I have this right?

Of course there is, and you can see that from the table I posted. Listen Tom, you might want to go around and around on this for days. I don't. This all started when someone threw out something like, "I bet you think fluoride is bad for you". I obviously spoke my mind on the topic since then. It IS something that we need to be attentive to, but you are free to believe whatever you wish to. All I've done is demonstrate that there are valid concerns in relation to fluoride. I'M concerned about it, and I don't want to ingest it. I shouldn't be FORCED to ingest it, nor should anybody else, and that is the point I've been trying to make...

Goodnight.

BTW, I WAS mistaken in that areas with natural fluoride in the water had the same problems as those with artifical fluoride. See, you learn something new everyday. It takes LOTS of time to wade through the enourmous amount of material on this subject. So again, as far as I've seen, natural fluoride in the water does NOT have the same effect as artificial fluoride....
