Yes, but where does your "2 %" figure come from? You would think that if
fluorescent lighting induces seizures in 2% of the population, I would have
met at least one of those poor stricken folks in the last 67 years.

Absolute tinfoil-hat nonsense! The idea of lighting as a seizure trigger
has been commonly known at least since my childhood; which is when I first
heard of the idea. What makes you think that there is some grand
conspiracy?

Maybe the swedish govt went a little overboard in banning any/all items with
mercury.
Isn't mercury used on the back of mirrors?

But then Bob wouldn't know whether mercury was safe or not, so his opinion
is worthless.

I wouldn't know.

What I know is flourescent lighting induces temporal lobe epilepsy,
and, the members of the various criminal cartels monopolizing health
care in the US have conspired to suppress that fact.

Those would be the trunks which aren't between the ground and the
foliage, I take it?

Do you ever stop to think? (And no, I am not trying to start another
rhetorical question cascade.)

I didn't think you would understand the comparison. Just add it to all
the other things you don't understand.

So what exemptions would you like to see to the total ban which will
mean that "it will no longer be permitted to place products containing
mercury on the Swedish market"?

Let's see. There is mercury in the leaves - you have stated that
yourself. It can only have come from the soil. So how does the mercury
get from the soil to the leaves? Telekinesis? Now what are those
things called that go between the soil and the leaves? Oh, that's
right - trunks. Where the timber comes from.

The point was, if you still remember, timber. Tree trunks, that is. Not
foliage, live or decomposed.

Could not make up a better nonsense? Exemptions are part of many laws in
may countries, never heard of them? Has nothing to do with alternative
or any other medicine.

But not that parts of trees that are sold as timber. If you have any
evidence of mercury in timber (real evidence, not this BS) please
present it.

Just were does the decomposing material come from? Lets apply a
little logic here...

Could it be from the trees? Plant life, like animal life tends to
concentrate some minerals.


Why is it that shellfish and fish downstream from a paper plant have
larger amounts of mercury, than those upstream?

You do know the LEDs use Hg in the production?

I have to look up the trace on most imported oils and lubricants in
Sweden.

Of course - the words "it will no longer be permitted" always mean "it
will no longer be permitted except when it will be permitted". Well,
oxymorons like that are part of alternative logic so of course they
also apply to alternative medicine believers.

Did you stop to think for a minute where the foliage and ground litter
came from? Here's a hint - trees.

No, I didn't think so, but thanks for admitting that you know what the
major source of mercury pollution of the environment is.

So really, where are the lawyers? If 2% of children has epilepsy induced
or exacerbated by fluorescent lighting then there must be a plenty of
lawyers even among their parents and grandparents. And several
congresspersons, and a couple of senators, too.

You are wrong again. The source of mercury in a forest fire is not tree
trunks. It is foliage and ground litter (because much of it is
decomposed foliage). Do you homework next time.

The mercury vapor from dental amalgam alone is a bigger source than all
the other sources together.

The Link Between Dental Fillings and Disease

Author: Ernie Mezei B.Sc. B.A.Sc


Mr. Mezei is a chemist and electrical engineer working in the high-tech
industry in Toronto, Canada.


NHANES III SCREENINGS - "THE WAY THINGS ARE". NO B.S. STUDIES. THE
TRUTH ABOUT


DENTAL FILLINGS AND DISEASE. COST: $120 MILLION DOLLARS TO COLLECT.


On graphs below: None = No Fillings, 1-7 = 1 Filling, 8-16 = 2-3 Fillings,
17-33 = 4-5 Fillings, 34-up = 6 or more Fillings


(Reason is filled surfaces were used. There are 140 filled surfaces,
corresponding to all 28 teeth, in the mouth)


Preamble: A search of the Internet confirmed that the survey used to create
this paper cost $120,000,000 US Dollars to collect:


The National Center for Health Statistics of the Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention announces the availability of additional data files from the
third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES III) These
additional data files include the Household Adult Questionnaire, the
Household
Youth Questionnaire and the remaining Dietary files. These data files are
from
the full six years of the NHANES III, 1988-94 and contain nearly all the
data
collected in the NHANES III including the following previously released
survey
components: Laboratory, Physician's examination, Body Measurements, Total
Nutrient Intakes, Mobile Examination Center (MEC) Proxy Questionnaire,
Dental
Examination, Allergy Skin Test, Audiometry, Tympanometry, WISC/WRAT
Cognitive
Tests, Spirometry, MEC Youth Questionnaire, Dietary Food Frequency,
Diagnostic
Interview Schedule (DIS), MEC Adult Questionnaire, Bone Densitometry, Home
Examination, Gallbladder Ultrasonography, Central Nervous System Function
Evaluation, Fundus Photography, Physical Function Evaluation as well as
selected demographic data, population weights and strata-PSU codes. The
Total
Nutrient Intake data has been revised to correct rounding errors in the
previous release of this data. For further information call the Data
Dissemination Branch at 301-436-8500. Data will be released July 28, 1997.
Two
months on CD ROMs will cost approximately $25. The data cost $120 million to
collect. NHANES IV will be pretested in March 1998 and will be in the field
by
September 1998. The study will run six years, and U.S. estimates can be made
with each year of data.


1.0 Introduction


For nearly two centuries, the profession of dentistry has been at war with
itself. Now, as then, there are charges that charlatans have invaded the
profession and are undermining the scientific standards upon which it is
based.
Today, any dentist who removes mercury dental fillings from a patient for
health reasons is charged as Unethical, and faces expulsion from the
American
Dental Association (ADA). In 1850, any dentist who placed mercury dental
fillings in a patient was charged as unethical and expelled from the
American
Society of Dental Surgeons (ASDS), the forerunner of the ADA.


The reason for this controversy is longstanding, and simple: Mercury Dental
Fillings, also known as Silver Amalgam, contain 50% Mercury, and mercury is
the
most toxic non-radioactive element towards human life. However, the fact
that
Mercury is a poison has not been proof that Dental Amalgam is a poison,
until
now. I looked at the Survivor Rates using the International Classification
of
Disease Codes (ICD-9-CM) from the U.S. National Health and Nutritional Exam
Survey 3 (NHANES III), and found dramatic differences in dental filling
rates
for people suffering from a variety of diseases, as compared to the dental
fillings rate in the general population. The NHANES III sample represents
180,072,328 Adult Americans, who are the General Adult Population 17 Years
of
age and older between 1988 and 1994.


I found the General Population is 22% Filling-Free, and almost all major
disease groups were either Above or Below this number. If Dental Fillings
had
no effect on health, all disease groups would be at 22% Filling-Free, which
is
clearly not the case.


In summary, the Larger the Survivor Group for a Particular Disease (ie
Circulatory Illness), the more this group is Filling-Free compared to the
General Population.


Example: For Circulatory Disease, the Survivor Group in the United States
has
a size of 27,200,000. The Filling-Free percentage is 33% in this
population,
the remaining 67% have Dental Fillings. The General Population of
180,072,328
Adult Americans is only 22% Filling-Free, while 78% have dental fillings.


I also found that the Smaller the Survivor Group, the more this group has
Dental-Fillings compared to the General Population:


Example: For ICD Codes 340-349, "Other disorders of the central nervous
system", which includes Multiple Sclerosis, Other demyelinating diseases of
central nervous system, Other paralytic syndromes, Epilepsy, Migraine,
Cataplexy and narcolepsy, Cerebral cysts, and Other and unspecified
disorders
of the nervous system, the Population Size is 1,600,000. In this survivor
group, fully 95% have Dental Fillings, as compared to 78% in the General
Adult
American Population of 180,072,328.


It is the stark increased ABSENCE of Dental Fillings in the Circulatory
Disease
Survivors and the simultaneous increased PRESENCE of Dental Fillings in the
MS/Paralysis/Seizures/Migraines Survivors that is cause for alarm. The
General
Population has a Filling Rate of 78%, and yet in these two survivor groups
the
filling rates are 67% and 95% respectively. Clearly, something is
occurring.


The differences between the Large Survivor Groups and Smaller Survivor
Groups
are even more dramatic when you consider that the Large Groups are surviving
illnesses which are acute, and often fatal. People don't "live" with
Heart Disease like they do with Multiple Sclerosis. Medical science today
still cannot predict which people will get which illness, but we can
confidently say that Dental Fillings have an impact on survival, and one key
may be to remove Mercury Dental Fillings to lower your risk in both
categories,
Large and Small Survivor Groups.


This discovery is based on government health data, freely available to any
researcher, and can be easily verified at
http://www.cdc.gov/nchs/about/major/nhanes/datalink.htm by downloading the
NHANES III datafile, and verifying the statistical analysis which will be
discussed throughout this paper for many disease groups.


2.0 SURVIVAL DATA.


Methodology: I did not look merely at all 28 teeth, a more granular
analysis
was done by looking at all 140 Tooth Surfaces as defined by modern
dentistry.
Groupings were made as follows: No Filled Surfaces, 1-7, 8-16, 17-33,
34-up.
This allowed for a fairly even distribution for the General Population in
the
United States (approximately 20% in each of the 5 categories, for a total of
100%). Then the Filled Surfaces distribution was computed for each ICD
Disease
Chapter, Sub-Chapter, or Individual Code. The two resulting groups
(Distribution of Fillings of those who have the Disease <Yes> and
Distribution
of Fillings of those who do not have the Disease <No> ) were then plotted.


Note: In all cases, the Distribution of those who don't have the disease
was
nearly identical to the General Adult Population Distribution (180 Million
people), as the largest chapter looked at (Circulatory System) had only 27
Million persons, as compared to its corresponding non-disease group of 157
Million. This feature is evident as you look at all the graphs to follow,
and
is a powerful element of this analysis.


2.1 Diseases of the Circulatory System


Population Size: 27,200,000 are survivors of diseases in this category.


ICD Chapter 7 Codes: Diseases of the circulatory system (390-459).
Includes:


acute rheumatic fever (390-392)


chronic rheumatic heart disease (393-398)


hypertensive disease (401-405)


ischemic heart disease (410-414)


diseases of pulmonary circulation (415-417)


other forms of heart disease (420-429)


cerebrovascular disease (430-438)


diseases of arteries, arterioles, and capillaries (440-448)


diseases of veins and lymphatics, and other diseases of circulatory
system
(451-459)


Legend: The dotted line on the graph below is the dental filling
distribution
of survivors who have the diseases above (Chapter 7), the solid line is the
remaining U.S. Population that does not have these diseases. The solid line
is
almost identical to the "norm", as in this case it represents 153,000,000
people.


Authors: I found that the Survivor Group for Circulatory Disease was 33%
Filling-Free, compared to 22% in the General Population and 19.5% in the
Non-Disease Group.


Conclusion: Survivors of Circulatory Disease have a Filling-Free Rate 50%
Higher than the General Population, and 60% Higher than the Group that does
not
have the disease.


2.2 Diseases of the Central Nervous System - Other


Population Size: 1,600,000 are survivors of diseases in this sub-category.


ICD Chapter 3 - Diseases of the nervous system and sense organs (320-389)


Sub-Chapter Presented Here: OTHER DISORDERS OF THE CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM
(340-349)


340 Multiple sclerosis


341 Other demyelinating diseases of central nervous system


342 Hemiplegia and hemiparesis


343 Infantile cerebral palsy


344 Other paralytic syndromes


345 Epilepsy


346 Migraine


347 Cataplexy and narcolepsy


348 Other conditions of brain


349 Other and unspecified disorders of the nervous system


Legend: The dotted line on the graph below is the dental filling
distribution
of survivors who have the diseases above (Chapter 3 Subchapter 3)), the
solid
line is the remaining U.S. Population that does not have these diseases.
The
solid line is identical to the "norm", as in this case it represents
178,400,000 people out of a total U.S. Adult population of 180,072,328.


Authors: I found that for the Survivor Group Other Diseases of the Central
Nervous System, 95% had Dental Fillings compared to 78% in the General
Population. Only 5% of the Survivors were Filling-Free.


Conclusion: The General Population is Filling-Free 400% more than the
Survivors of Chronic Other CNS Disease.


2.3 Review of All Diseases Screened, for Filling-Free Rates vs. Filling
Rates.

Note: People can belong to more than One Disease Group (which will make
them
very sick indeed).


To calculate the non-disease Group size, subtract the Group Size for a
specific
disease from 180,072,328.


Analysis:


1) For Category A, the 4 Groups have a much higher Filling-Free average
than the General Population. This group includes the Symptoms Group, that
special group of people who suffer from a myriad of symptoms having no
organic
cause. Clearly, suffering severe symptoms combined with Dental Fillings
does
not bode well for survival if you are in this group. Connective (Arthritis)
and Endocrine (Pancreas) are members of this group. Survivor Category A has
far fewer dental fillings than the general population.


2) For Category C, the 7 Groups have a much lower Filling-Free average
than the General Population. These people suffer diseases of the nervous
system, skin, reproductive system, kidneys, and tend to injure themselves at
a
rate far higher than the general population. Survivor Category C has mouths
full of dental fillings as compared to the average, and endures terrible
suffering from the diseases of this category.


3) Category B looked most like the Average Filling Rates of the U.S.
Population. Interestingly, this group suffers from Digestive Problems and
Mental Stress, which are the Number 1 and 2 Complaints found at Doctor's
Offices. They are most often prescribed sedatives, tranquilizers,
anti-depressants, and stomach upset medication, and told there is no cause
for
their complaints. They also suffer Infections that require treatment.


3.0 Conclusions


It is, for example, the stark increased ABSENCE of Dental Fillings in the
Circulatory Disease Survivors and the simultaneous increased PRESENCE of
Dental
Fillings in the MS/Paralysis/Seizures/Migraines Survivors that is cause for
alarm. The General Population has a Filling Rate of 78%, and yet in these
two
survivor groups the filling rates are 67% and 95% respectively. Clearly,
instead of a "small" effect, Dental Fillings are a "massive" effect.


This pattern repeated itself across all ICD-9-CM Codes we studied in the
NHANES
III data set. It is the simultaneous ABSENCE and PRESENCE of dental
fillings
in Disease Survivors that was most alarming. It has long been hypothesized,
for example, that Multiple Sclerosis is caused by mercury dental fillings,
but
there was no proof linking the dental filling to the survivor. The General
Population is 400% More Filling-Free than the 1.9 Million Americans who
suffer
diseases in the MS Category.


It is important to note that this report is a Screening of NHANES III for
dental fillings rates versus disease, not a study of how mercury vapor from
dental amalgam causes illness. The statistical research company that worked
as
a sub-contractor on this project advises that they are concerned with such a
dramatic discovery in such a short time, and urged caution. They advised us
that in the case of a Full-Blown Study of how dental amalgam causes illness,
"Intervening Variables" would have to be eliminated. In the case of this
paper, what you are seeing is not a study, but a very simple screening of
the
most expensive health survey in human history. NHANES III cost $120,000,000
to
collect over a 6 year period between 1988 and 1994. If this were a study
(and
it is not clear exactly how one would go about "studying" how dental
amalgam causes illness, as that question has been going on for over 150
years),
we would have to perform statistical tricks like removing the effects of age
or
diet from analysis to see if the statistics change (age becomes an
intervening
variable if it affects the results). For example people get more fillings
as
they age, so if you remove the effects of age you remove fillings. At any
rate, that is not the intent of this paper, to play games with the most
important health survey ever done. The dramatic results in this paper, on
the
first pass of screening analysis in an area previously unexplored, are
strong
evidence that dental fillings are the True Intervening Variable. The
implications of this report are that current health "studies" are wrong,
because dental fillings have never, ever been considered a "variable".
Examples of this would be the Framingham Heart Study, which for 50 years
studied 5,000 citizens of Framingham, MA. Dental fillings were simply never
looked at or considered a factor in human health.


We are aware that other scientists will attempt to duplicate and challenge
these screening results, but that is missing the point. The data is freely
available on the Internet, and the screening was carefully done and is
correct.
Anyone with a statistical analysis package can duplicate this work in 2
days.
The point is actually that dental fillings are simply making people sick,
and
that the most simple screening of the world's most expensive health survey
found something that looks wrong. Ask yourself this: Dental fillings are a
physical feature. Now when people get sick, they still have the same
physical
features as before, don't they? Two arms, two legs, two eyes, two ears, ten
fingers, ten toes, etc. Except for dental fillings. The sick people have
different rates of a physical feature called dental fillings than the people
who aren't sick. The difference is, this physical feature is made of 50%
mercury, unlike your eyes or ears that are made of bio-compatible materials.
That's why what you are reading here isn't a study. What you are reading
here is a set of screenings that are showing us The Way It Is, from a survey
that cost $120,000,000. The facts are these: People get better from a host
of
health problems (as seen on 60 Minutes in 1990) when they remove mercury
dental
fillings, this screening now show that groups of people have different rates
of
dental fillings based on disease. No other medical analysis has ever
considered dental fillings as an effect, and tried to eliminate them through
statistical analysis. I have done so, and these results are evidence that
the
effect is strong and damaging to the health of the American People. If
people
did not recover from illness by removing dental fillings, I would not have
done
this screening in the first place.

Sweden bans amalgam effective June 1 2009

Subject: Sweden bans amalgam effective June 1 2009 A press release from the
Swedish Ministry of Environment follows.

http://www.sweden.gov.se/sb/d/11459/a/118550




Press release 15 January 2009 Ministry of the Environment



Government bans all use of mercury in Sweden The Government today decided to
introduce a blanket ban on mercury. The ban means that the use of dental
amalgam in fillings will cease and that it will no longer be permitted to
place products containing mercury on the Swedish market.

"Sweden is now leading the way in removing and protecting the environment
from mercury, which is non-degradable. The ban is a strong signal to other
countries and a Swedish contribution to EU and UN aims to reduce mercury use
and emissions," says Minister for the Environment Andreas Carlgren.

The Government's decision means that products containing mercury may not be
placed on the Swedish market. In practice this means that alternative
techniques will have to be used in dental care, chemical analysis and the
chloralkali industry. The Swedish Chemicals Agency will be authorised to
issue regulations on exceptions or grant exemptions in individual cases.

In connection with the Government's decision, waste containing mercury will
be disposed of in deep geological repositories in other EU countries. The
Swedish market for hazardous waste is small. Last spring, a government
inquiry established that there are existing repositories for waste
containing mercury in, for example, Germany that more than adequately meet
the safety requirements on which Swedish legislation is based. Creating a
new Swedish repository would be around 15 times more expensive than
depositing waste in existing facilities in the EU. The bodies consulted on
this matter shared the inquirys conclusions.

"By using common solutions and almost forty years of experience of storing
mercury in the EU, we are not lowering safety standards. The waste will be
transported to a deep geological repository with high safety standards. In
accordance with the polluter pays principle, the owners of the waste will be
responsible for ensuring that disposal in a repository is arranged and
paying for it," says Mr Carlgren.

The disposal possibilities in other EU countries provide better incentives
for the desired development of safe, large-scale technologies to stabilise
waste containing mercury.

Since the beginning of the 1990s there has been a ban in Sweden on the
manufacture and sale of certain products containing mercury, including
thermometers and other measuring devices and electronic components.

The new regulations enter into force on 1 June 2009.

Very good question!

Can you imagine the HORRIFIC abuse which 2% of all american children
have been being subjected to as a result of their being transferred
out of fluorescent lighted regular classrooms to fluorescent lighted
SPED programs, then, institutionalized in fluorescent lighted child
study centers, where they ALL wind up lying in their piss and shit
with drool all over their chests while members of the various mental
health related criminal cartels perform horrific experiments upon them
when they aren't raping and sodomizing them?

Please site some reference about a TLE - fluorescent light connection.

Wow--where are the lawyers on this one? I mean, we're just starting to
gear up for the fight against zinc release from denture adhesives.
