Hey Phil, drop me a PM when you want to get together in Milwaukee sometime. I'm sure Lwin would drive up also, if we ask him. Or hell, he may just show up at my door

The title of this thread is missing punctuation. It should read,
"Bush did it, right?"

What is really funny is that I have yet to see anything written about real triumphs or achievements. Surely you can't go that long without having done something positive that everyone can agree on? |

I'm still impressed with him color coding terror.
Quite a dog-gone accomplishment if you ask me.

Or wait, that's the definition of a Democrat Ever wonder why no unions ever support Republicans? Its because someone told them decades ago that they can't and they've never stopped to think about it for themselves. All right, who wants to start a good 'ol fashioned flame war? Come on!! On second thought I think I'll make myself a Brandy Old Fashioned and just turn this dang computer thingy off.

First off, there is no single Canadian healthcare system. I simply stated that the State of Wisconson's HIRSP had similarities to the Province of Ontario's plan. You clarified that. Thanks.
Frankly, I've never really thought much about asbestos. Once it has been installed in a building and as long as it isn't touched, then it doesn't pose much of a threat. Since I don't work with it at all, and home renovations are usually limited to a coat of paint or new carpets, it just wasn't on my horizon. I did another one of my "random searches" and found it surprising that up to and including 2005 (last stats I could find) the US continues to import asbestos, albeit in ever smaller amounts. Asbestos mining in the US stopped in 2002. http://minerals.usgs.gov/minerals/pu...asbesmcs06.pdf Ah... I think I understand the problem with banning asbestos in Canada. Might be a bit difficult for non-Canadians to understand, but I'll try. Asbestos is mined in Quebec. What Quebec wants, it usually gets in order to off-set threats of separation. Heck, there's even a town in Quebec called "Asbestos" which sits on the western world's largest known deposit of chrysotile. So I don't see a solution to this problem in the near future. Asbestos continues to be a big money maker for the Quebec economy. Only when everyone stops buying it will Quebec stop producing it. |
