No worries Graham. As you say it's a good forum and the main thing is that we all learn from it

You are quite right Jason, the current generation have very limited experience of some of the dangers many of us were exposed to.

The lead based paint thing is also something I have a bit of experience (!). The many people I saw back in the early nineties burning paint off in Victorian houses...... No warnings in any of the DIY emporiums. The people din't really concern me, but many were young families with children, renovating these houses after work and by inference after school.

As you say, little experience and some of the things I and I am sure many of the people here did during our apprenticeships under the instruction of our Master would probably get them a lengthy jail term today!

Indeed Graham,

Folks shouldn't be sceptical of the effect of low levels of lead. There was a 'band' of under-achievement in schools along the M6 through Birmingham (near Spaghetti Junction) that couldn't be explained by other issues (e.g. demographics). I understand the effect has disappeared since lead was taken out of petrol.
