Ghostwind Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Is there really a difference between your two choices? with that being said, there is no government that has not done stupid crap to its own citizens... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonka Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share Posted September 29, 2012 Ah...Tonka. You almost got me. It was a trick question. Edit: Found this. Take it however you want to. Its a pretty interesting story either way. That's is about the same story. From the link I provided: For the first time, she links the St. Louis testing to a company called US Radium, a company notorious for lawsuits involving radioactive contamination of its workers. "US radium had this reputation where they had been found legally liable for producing a radioactive powdered paint that killed many young women who painted fluorescent watch tiles," said Martino-Taylor. While the Army admits it added a florescent substance to the zinc cadmium compound, details of whether it was radioactive remains secret. If there was no radioactive particles in it, wouldn't they just say, no there wasn't, but if there was, they can't reveal THAT, hence the secret.

Ah...Tonka. You almost got me. It was a trick question. Edit: Found this. Take it however you want to. Its a pretty interesting story either way. This has been going on since the 70's , most of the testing is in Columbia, over the coffee fields, all the brands of coffee sold in the U.S. has zinc cadmium sulfide in it.

NoGooD Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Hmmm, Watching Government regulated television again? This has been going on since the 70's , most of the testing is in Columbia, over the coffee fields, all the brands of coffee sold in the U.S. has zinc cadmium sulfide in it. I always thought that was for extra flavor and kick. I'm aware of some of the testing that went on. It's pretty amazing it was ever allowed to happen. I just got a laugh out of the intro paragraph. A series of secret tests conducted by the U.S. Army in the 1950s and 1960s did not expose residents of the United States and Canada to chemical levels considered harmful, according to a new report* from a committee of the National Research Council.
