Sometimes these posts write themselves.
In my news searches today, I found a story on how Vancouver, British Columbia-based Mountain Equipment Co-op is having trouble keeping enough stainless steel water bottles in stock because of concern about bisphenol A in polycarbonate bottles.
That item popped up right next to a story on how the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is recalling some metal water bottles made by Downeast Concepts Inc. in Yarmouth, Maine, because of lead paint contamination.
Consumers must be wondering, where can we turn for a safe water bottle? Are there any manufacturers we can trust?

The next run will be on umbrellas as 'The sky is falling' said chicken Little. Most of natures systems are pretty robust and handle small quantities of unique stuff pretty well. I do not mean to trivialize significant issues but some of these issues have been worn pretty thin. If you need to agonize over issues look at some of the specifications of grain products and see what is included, in minor levels mind you.
