If you read the quote the question was asked by vnamcam "what are the symptoms of lead poisoning"? hence the post.....

I don't know vnamcam at all apart from reading his posts....

I do know however that he doesn't need you to bat for him.... and clearly based on the average standards of the average written posts on this forum, there is nothing wrong with his posts. Clearly it is a very informal environment and to suggest he isn't up to standard clearly isn't serious

You might have just got it wrong.... Philipo got it...

Your first sentence in the above quoted post, sort of proves my point.

Com'on settle down boys'n'girls & stop diggin at each other

Re- lead poisoning, I was once told that one Symptom was being able to drink large amounts of piss ( hence that alot of painters can down the brews )

if only you knew the facts not the rubbish you read in the newpapers

True that! You could find 10 so called experts for and against on any topic and they will all have compelling arguments.
I like everyone else have a desire in killing a quarry as quick as possible. But I am of the firm opinion lead is better than steel as far as killing goes at ranges beyond 25 yrds.
I do not have a clue as to whether lead is anymore harmful than anything else we blast over water. Everything in life now days is fucking harmful in one way or another. I worry more about the other involuntary toxins we ingest than chewing on a bit of lead shot. I am sure ducks are dying in greater numbers around the country than before the ban as well.

Yeah you're right R93 everything supposedly bad for ya now days, I'd hate to live in California apparently everything there gives ya cancer

It must be a West Coast thing Philipo. I know or have known far to many people to get or pass on from bowel cancer on NZ's West Coast. It is friggin scary stuff. I am sick of hearing about people I know coming down with the friggin gut rust. I am not sure on the figures or if its just how many times it comes up in conversation but it seems way to high on the Coast.
