Bought a new pitchfork and noticed it too can cause cancer. Is there anything that does not cause cancer in California?

We pass laws like that to discourage folks from the Midwest from moving here.

The substance appears to be very commonly used in PVC products and only a problem if you ingest a significant amount of it.?ÿ Absorption through the skin is low.?ÿ What is plastic on a pitchfork?

...What is plastic on a pitchfork?

Probably the glue on the 'caution' label.

If "everything" causes cancer in California, then why is there still so many Californians?

Oh, we're used to all the cancer-causing agents. It's the recently moved people who need to worry!?ÿ

(As of last week, I've been here 25 years. Two more years and I'll have lived half my life in California)

Hey wait a minute!

That tool was made in Pensylvania, not California. They don't know any better there. Shipping all kinds of cancer to the rest of the country. SHAME!

JA, PLS SoCal

I had an earlier version of this "Ban dihydrogen monoxide" (pdf file) posted in my office for years.?ÿ Had the title "THINK BEFORE YOU REACT!" posted above the poster.

The result was a number of conversations like these from Youtube?ÿ

As one of the comments to the YouTube said, the problem isn't that people don't know what it is, the problem is that they are eager to ban it without knowing what it is.

"...or other reproductive harm."?ÿ Hmm, now that's worrying my midwestern manhood a bit.?ÿ For you Californians; the points on the end have similar dangers:)
