					<description><![CDATA[Good point, Sara B.  I saw a similar headline on the front page of my local newspaper (Riverside [CA] Press-Enterprise, actually a moderate-conservative paper).  What a coincidence that this announcement comes out now?  Do you think it might just be an attempt to quiet some of the screaming about CPSIA?  Nah, no one would ever do anything that calculated...  Of course the study is a few months old, but of course it needed to be brought back in front of the public to help obfuscate the discussion.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Yet again, a very useful and informative post.

I see now I&#039;m not alone in not making it through the &quot;moderator&quot; on various articles - last one was at the Examiner (and I actually thanked them for their feature, as it made some kind of dent toward revealing the TRUTH)...ah, sad.  My personal policy on comments is that I will only fail to publish if a) they fail to use &#038;$#@% in place of really bad language and b) if I feel their comment would only embarrass them to a degree they don&#039;t deserve (I had one on a feature I wrote about being opposed to the class action lawsuit where my respect for the author inspired me to simply respond offline - there are nice ways to promote dialogue).  Currently, one project I&#039;m working on is a post of all my commentaries at various places so that the ones who failed to print will be exposed.  Censorship of opposing views is disgraceful - I may be direct and have a clear POV - but my comments are not packed with foul language, etc.   

On a &#039;humorous&#039; note,  I think I&#039;m going to start a line of bumper stickers - first one, &quot;Has anybody seen the AMERICA my grandparents helped to build lately?&quot;   Or, how about, &quot;My Child&#039;s Carseat [insert word here] has been BIG BROTHER APPROVED!&quot;

And on a serious note, thanks for the link to the disabled concern - I emailed ARC and suggest we all ought to find more groups that promote this &quot;special interest&quot; in our community.  When you start taking money from those that have enough challenges in getting jobs, etc., it&#039;s downright shameful!

In a few days, I hope to reveal a project that I think will be of value to WE the PEOPLE who seek to be GOOD AMERICANS by learning the truth about CPSIA and asking questions.  Thanks again for this coverage - your will to stay with the cause that promises to take longer than not is to be commended.

Kind Regards,
Tristan Benz

					<description><![CDATA[Great article Walter Olson. This is a must read for all educators and parents - not to alarm them about the potential hazard of books, but about the real danger of too much power in the hands of those with sinister motives.  Behind every law and lawmaker is someone who will benefit.  Who will benefit from the seizing and possible destruction of  these children&#039;s books? Definitely (1) contractor who will test these books,  ( 2) publishers who will  reprint these books, and  (3) lets not forget lawmakers who will or have received payment from these fortunate contractors. 

I wonder if it will next be unlawful for a child to touch the computer, which also could contain &quot;harmful&quot; products?  

Too bad our lawmakers don&#039;t seem to care about unsafe schools.  Lawmakers removed from the Stimulus Bill, the provision giving EPA oversight over the environmental quality of schools.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I count myself as proud that they were too scared to print a simple response. 

Fear is such an amusing emotion, especially when it comes from something that calls itself a media outlet or an advocacy group. After all, blogs are *so* threatening. Maybe its the lead:)]]></description>
