[Rockhounds] lead poison

[Charles Baran]

"...was just another part of what was happening..."?  With all due 
respect..and not trying to start anything..but as an old Vietnam Vet, I 
must respond.  Over 50,000 of my brothers and sisters died in something 
that was "...part of something that was happening...".  The Vietnam War 
was so  much more, Grant, and I am very ashamed that you don't know 
that.  Enough said.  Chuck.
