So you're not suggesting that we do anything to the stupid people, just remove the warning labels from things and let the problem work itself out? :biggrinjester:

This is slightly off the topic of contaminants in water...

One of the most staunch anti-gun liberals I've met, who was an avid swimmer, whose child was on a swim team, and who was very proud of his backyard swimming pool didn't like it when I told him more children die from drowning than handling firearms.

2000-2006 statistics for unintentional deaths ages 0-18

I pulled these statistics from CDC's WISQARS website, a database of injury statistics.
