The BPA leaks in greater quantities when the plastic or the contents are heated. Microwaving in plastic is apparently not a good idea. What is of real concern is that there are no studies at all on the long term accumulative effects of the little bits one gets daily from say coke bottles.

When you have babies that drink out of heated plastic bottles 6 to 8 times a day. BPA is definitely a concern. It is recommended to use BPA free plastic bottles (easy to find) or glass bottles.

We've had several death's amongst family members here at work too (myself included). This has been a f'd up year so far.

I know how you feel... my 89 year old grandmother just passed away over a month ago. It was especially painful, as it was a car accident.

I'm very sorry to hear that Adam, I know that especially had to be tough for you all. My condolences.

Well, now we know. Can you imagine what he'd be like when using? Also, it's really amazing to keep hearing of folks using these super heavy opioids, and several at the same time. OK, he had therapeutic doses but heck man, just because it's prescribed doesn't mean it's safe.

Cocaine a factor in Billy Mays' death.

An autopsy report issued Friday by Hillsborough County, Florida, cites cocaine as a contributing factor in the death of TV pitchman Billy Mays, who died in June at age 50.
The Hillsborough County medical examiner's office said cocaine use contributed to Billy Mays' heart disease.

"Mays died from a lethal arrhythmia of the heart caused by hypertensive and arteriosclerotic heart disease," the county said in a statement attributed to Dr. Leszek Chrostowski, the associate medical examiner who conducted the autopsy.

"He further concluded that cocaine use caused or contributed to the development of his heart disease, and therefore contributed to his death," it added.

The fact that toxicology tests detected only breakdown products of cocaine, not the drug itself, led Chrostowski to conclude that Mays had used cocaine "in the few days prior to death but not immediately prior to death."

LMAO Funny, I saw this yesterday in relation to Billy Mays

OxiClean is actually sodium percarbonate, a standard cleaning chemical that's been around just short of forever. You can buy it in bulk at most chemical supply companies or pool supply stores where it's sold to help balance your pool's pH. You can get bucket loads cheap as hell there, but you have to ask yourself if you're willing to deprive the Mays estate of the income.

I am more concerned with the Schmidt Estate than I am with the May's estate.

Geez man, mum was smart. She made a paste from washing soda mixed with hydrogen peroxide for stains which is what sodium percarbonate is in a stable form! The gullibility of people never astounds me!
