Whass wrong, shackness.... was it my grammar, or lack thereof? ;)




This is the blog I received yesterday on the scare
The Truth Behind the Formaldehyde Scare | Mt Baker Vapor




"But wait. Are we actually talking about formaldehyde at all? I’d naturally assumed that this, at least, was correct – that formaldehyde had been released in the vapour at high voltages. Then Dr Farsalinos intervened to point out that no, it wasn’t. What Pankow and Peyton were measuring was actually a class of chemicals called formaldehyde hemiacetals. These are a combination of formaldehyde and alcohols; they’re produced when propylene glycol breaks down at high temperatures to produce formaldehyde, which then reacts with more propylene glycol (an alcohol) to form the hemiacetals. Pankow and Peyton classed formaldehyde hemiacetals as “Formaldehyde Releasing Agents” and backed this up with a link to another paper, showing how FRAs can cause health risks.

Well, there’s a serious problem with this. The paper they linked to wasn’t talking about formaldehyde hemiacetals at all; it was discussing several completely different classes of chemicals. In fact there’s no evidence that formaldehyde hemiacetals even release formaldehyde, or that they pose any risk of cancer or any other health problems. To do what this study did, and assume they pose the same cancer risk as free formaldehyde, is utterly dishonest. In fact it’s actually possible that hemiacetals could have a protective effect against formaldehyde!"

Don't know about you (all), but I did not hesitate to put this into my article arsenal. Here's the link: Formaldehyde Strikes Again | Fergus OnlineFergus Online

While that thread is timely and super informative, I really find myself only interested in Mr. Stosh's take on "science", and I'm sure glad it is settled. ;) I knew that the earth was flat, but I had no CLUE there were male and female vapors! What a relief that it's curable!

The original electrically powered aids were invented to help doctors whose hands and fingers were getting tired during treatment. And presto a whole new at-home self help medical industry was born.....:lol:...:lol:
