The hysteria about asbestos appears suspiciously like the hysteria about witches in 17th century Massachusetts. Asbestos is available everywhere down here in Mexico and, so I hear, in Canada too.

I knew a man up in California who was making ten thousand dollars a week hauling asbestos to hazardous waste disposal dumps in special trucks. The government was spending millions tearing it out of school buildings where it was completely harmless, covered with multiple layers of paint, sheet rock, plaster, concrete, etc. Your tax dollars at work.
