Very interesting comparison between what Bill Gates thinks of the auto industry and what GM thinks of computers    Computer?  Car?  Thanks for sharing this

Thing of it is, the car industry is a culprit for harm from ethylene glycol ethers. 

 It is in paint BIG TIME ... and what else?

 
If products can't be used safely - DON'T Use

Since the public doesn't have an education on what 2-butoxyethanol and diethylene glycol monobutyl ethers do to you ... simply giving the 'Proper Use Instructions' of wear goggles, gloves, rinse eyes for 15 minutes, don't get in waterways, etc. DOESN'T CUT IT

Say to the public instead, "that they will have damaged: blood, liver, kidneys, skin, eyes, central nervous system including depression and short term memory loss, and suicidal tendencies; endocrine system (high blood pressure/high blood sugar/reproductive damage) and tell them, too, it doesn't take much exposure to cause this! The more exposure the sooner you die; and the more horrible the death. Cancers very probable. Sterility possible . Children at risk for birth defects and leukemia and tumor of the brain. Multiple existing health studies 'skewed' because the primary cause is not mentioned or known:

2-butoxyethanol poisoning  blood

Do they have these symptoms of hemolytic anemia?  *

AND, do they have this blood damage?  *

Combined with an assortment of these?  *

Difference between blood damage from benzene in oil & 2-butoxyethanol in anything

Staff Sgt James Alford - Not an isolated case

There is another in his unit - with same symptoms

According to this news article his symptoms started before he went to Afghanistan. 

It sounds like he has a neurological diagnosis, but is there more?

 

 

Have they checked any sources of ethylene oxide?  or TOO much exposure to 2-butoxyethanol (ethylene glycol ethers)?

2-butoxyethanol and diethylene glycol monobutyl ethers should be BANNED  Contact your Legislators  
 
Many people already know people who are affected ... but don't realize it;
Need studies!  The truth can be known; others can be spared this heartache  www.valdezlink.com/study_needed.htm#groups

First 2-butoxyethanol damages the blood

These 2 chemicals have not been researched or studied for Gulf War Syndrome

Yet, troops have known exposure to them.  What are these exposures?

Some things take a little investigation - Here is what 2-butoxyethanol does to people    How to get some research on what 2-butoxyethanol does & see the symptoms ...

many are affected in many ways

Kidney and Liver function?

Says a 31 year old - diagnosed with kidney failure:

"Yes, I remember all to well when my eyes started burning like there was hot pokers in them. It coincided with a VERY nasty stomach bug...vomiting, the runs...it was miserable.  My urine turned black, like coffee.

The day I got sick I had been cleaning up at work.  That night I was so sick...took me 2 days to get the energy up to drag myself to the doctor's office & threw up all over it for him to tell me I had the flu."

Margaret:  "These 'flu' like symptoms are also the signs of having too much chemical exposure of some kind. 

AND 2-butoxyethanol does more than damage the blood
