Do NOT lick your harddisk. Not while it's spinning, anyway.

"But Dell, along with Apple Computer Inc. and others, stopped using PBDEs in 2002"

All my Dell laptops and desktop are post-2002.
Is it safe for me to get out of the shower now?

Well, according to Joycelyn Elders: "we will all probably die of something, someday....and, I'm not downplaying that!".

Electronics companies began using polybrominated diphenyl (PBDEs) and other flame retardants in the 1970s, arguing that the toxins prevent fires and cannot escape from plastic casings.

OMG, just when you think it can't get worse, they tell you your computers may get you. Well, if so we Freepers will go out in good company together and I would like to say that I always liked y'all......even the moderators.:)

I don't know.....do you any fire extinguishers, or fluorescent lights? If you do, put a mask on and don't touch anything. Someone will call you eventually......if there's anyone left alive...............................

What does that matter when today's crisis is about death by computers?

Psst! Guess who has REALLY been pushing through flame-retardents, DDT banning, etc etc ???

It seems whatever the leftists touch turns to crap.
