Re: [Digital BW] Best Rip for 2200 - Weston would agree?

2005-04-16 by Anthony S. Tubbs

I have just a quick thing to say abouth this. First I know several old 
men in their 80 and 90 that have smoked non filtered cigs for 60 70 plus 
years, does cigs cause cancer to some people yes it does.  Now theirs a 
new thing going around about babies and the immue shots and the link to 
Autisum, the drug compaines use a organic form of mercuy for a 
perserative in the immue shots that babies get now in this country 0ne 
out of 166 babies develope some type of autisum related diease.  No link 
has been proven, so what is the casue, in the fortys and fifties a lot 
of dark room workers came down with Parkersons diease, did the dark room 
chemical caues, no Proven link.  My father and mother worked for Owens 
Mills for most of their life so I met plenty of people that had gotten 
sick. And lots of people that did'nt get sick.     Anthony
