First of all, learn to spell.
Second, stop posting the same shit in three different posts. If you want to increase your # of posts, do it in a better way.
Third, you are an idiot. Even if verm. was going off the market, there would still be some companies that woud sell it. Why? Because there's a demand for it. You said they were making an alternative? That's bullshit. Why make an alternative when there's nothing wrong with verm. in the first place? Oh, and I don't understand a thing you said about THC in the marijuana seeds... What does that have to do with anything? Please explain this to me.

The asepestos(SP?) scare is not even a concern for us it is only a concern for the people that process it. there is a huge post about it here or on the forest florr. It would make more sense to me that they would come up wuith a better production methode rather than lose lots of money closeing mines/finding a subsitite/setting up new plants. that would nto make any sense.
just my 2 cents

Yep this VERM SCARE is old news around here and while some chains/stores may not be carrying it anymore I had no problem buying it TODAY at my regular spot. Anyone ever hear of a home center type joint called "Doody's"? I only know of this one but with a name like "Doody" it cant be exclusive to Bklyn, NY anyway this is the only place I can find Ball jars also.

maybe in some states or some area, but.... I live in NY State, and they're pretty liberal here, and I'd figure they'd be one of the first to take it off the market if it had a health hazard, but... I can still buy it here. In fact the place where I buy it from (a farm and gardening store) just ran out and said another order was coming in this coming week.
anyways.... hopefully everyone can still find it :P
peace out!

In Montana there is a whole town that the EPA is considering making a superfund sight because of verm. mining that has been going on along time there. It has been making the news because they (WR Grace & Co) have been telling the people that verm is ok and did very little to protect them. People have been hacking their lungs out there for several decades and deaths attributed to the mine are climbing. CDC (center for disease control) came and did a big study on the residence of Libby (northwest corner of the state, grizzlys and even caribou are often seen) and found the population to have very abnormally high rates of respiratory (love that word) problems which they eventually traced to the mine. The stupid thing is that those same people who are dying of this mess are the same people who just poo-poo "environmentalists" and have long been supporters of the mining industry and the logging industry for that matter. SO, I would guess that long term, repeated exposure to verm. without any precaustions of saftey measures may be hazardous. I would also guess that most of the people who post/read here put at least that much shit in thier bodys just when they eat and which is probably worse than as much vermiculite as we handle.

this is probably of little use. One type of verm was pulled from the market about 6 months ago due to asbestos (SP), anyways verm has a large amout of small dust particals that can cause lung problems. My friend (who really does run a garden store) told me that the talk about removing it from the market was aimed more at the chain store brands (smaller bags) and he felt that the larger bags (ak the 4 cu feet bags and larger) will still be sold. Just my 2 cents, who knows i am probably wrong
peace

man - these posts are just recycling themselves here! The real reason some shops stoped dealing with verm., was the fact that the occasional sniffing of verm. dust could cause an extreme bout of shite-spilling

You have to understand the government mentality to grasp the considered ban of verm.
It begins with your typical mycophile that has been breathing in all that potentially harmful verm dust for the past 20 or so years. Although the excessive intake of fruitbodies has yet to cause any physical harm to him, his doctor has informed him his lungs are congested and he should consider quiting smoking. The avid shoomer stops at his local 7/11 picks up a couple packs of Lucky Cigarrettes and three six packs of beer.
Relaxing in front of his TV, CNN anounces a posibility that Vermiculite "could" contain small amounts of asbestos that has been linked to lung disease. "Good Lord" thinks the very inibriated shoomer, "That must be what caused my lung problems." The distraght shroomer gussles the remaining 2 brews, and knowing that he probably only has another 20 or so years to live, takes the loaded 45 he bought at Sally's Gun and Pawn Shop (it was on sale) from its usual place on the coffe table, and eats a bullet to end his anticipated future suffering.
The Police do their standard investigation of the premises and discover the poor shoomers growing supplies and tek notes. Although no actual mushrooms are found, the coroner naturaly goes with the preponderance of the evidence and lablels the death a drug related suicide.
The tragic suicide is reported on CNN where government officials see it and decide something MUST be done!
It only stands to reason they would center their efforts on the first stage of this horrible event to "Nip things in the bud" and Ban the Killer Vermiculite, protecting society once again !!!
See... It really does make sense... and for our own good !
