I don't think it's OK that we are only told in passing, as a side comment, that the original fetcheveryone.com contained asbestos. It's all very well claiming to be asbestos-free now, but I can't see any real attempt to assess the damage done by the earlier versions of Fetch. I think it is significant that none of us has broken the marathon world record, when with a following wind and a downhill course, how hard can it be? My lawyers will prove that this is a side effect of Fetchestosgate.

I'm not sure that being asbestos free is a good thing.

When flame wars start on threads about which way up your feet should be when they hit the ground it creates an ignotion risk in more peaceful areas of the site. I think there should be more asbestos in use as a flame retardent.

It's a scandal and I'm going to try to get the site closed down on health and safety grounds.

LeGreg - 17% asbestos, 83% Parmesan
the "lack of training thing" is just an excuse. And all those graphs in the newsletter are just a smokescreen to deflect attention from the real reasons our knees are turning to jelly and our shins are falling to bits.

Asbestos doesn't turn your knees to jelly nor does it make your shins fall apart. A Black & Decker drill and a sledgehammer do that. Just sayin'...
