Yeah, I see that they used lead pipe up until the 1950s. Thanks.

I'm in construction, lead piping is not very popular. Cast iron, copper and now PVC are pretty much the norm that you will find in 98% of all buildings and residences.

Lead paint in old houses is also a problem, especially if it's chipped, say on a window sill and a toddler ingests it. I read an article a couple of weeks ago about how some poor kid was poisoned by lead paint chips and how it affected him in school. He was about 10 years old and tried to lie down in the middle of a street to kill himself because he knew that something was wrong with him. Apparently, there are treatments to extract lead from body tissues but not the brain.

It depends on what part of the country you're talking about, and how old the building is...

Quit making excuses for evil. The whites that lived in that area before the blacks and hispanics moved in didn't act like these people do. Explain that ?

The school building(s) might as well be razed, since it no longer serves a constructive purpose...

Or seize it under crackhouse drug confiscation laws...

It's the newest game sweeping the nation - The Wheel of Spurious and Absurd Causes...object of the game is to find the most facile and thought-free cause for any social problem you happen to encounter. Bonus points if the cause has something to do with your bizzare pet issue.

From Dr. William Marcus - letter re fluoride

Fourth, I state that the act of fluoridating water increases lead exposure especially to children because of two facts – a. The fluoride added to drinking water often has up to 400 mcg of lead per liter and b. the corrosive action of fluoride extracts lead from pipes and solder joints increasing lead exposure of the young. (Babies up to 3 months absorb 16 times as much lead per unit body weight than adults. Black babies and children because of genetic make­up absorb significantly more lead than white babies.)

These kids aren't dolts. If they can sell what everyone else is giving away they've got a future in marketing.

Teachers wrote a letter claiming major problems are plaguing the South Central Los Angeles campus including students who are gambling, drinking, cutting classes, using profanity, smoking marijuana, threatening teachers and committing sexual acts.

Bill Clinton's Amerika....

"You can walk around campus and you're not sure when class is in and when it isn't because there's so many students roaming around. There's not a respect for authority,"

Just send them more money, that will solve everything.

Yeah, yeah, blame it on flouride, on lead, on racism, on TV, on video games, on our Mideast policy, on absentee fathers, on welfare mothers...

You should go back to lurking on this one, I think your assertion that the drinking water is the cause for these hoodlums actions is rediculous.
