this is new stuff i just heard:

in the original design of the world trade center, asbestos was supposed to be put around the steel corners and stuff, but the envriomentalists freaked because about the asbestos causing cancer (however, it would be behind SOOO much steel and building material) but it would just act as a fire retardant---what do u think about this??? EVEN W/O THIS I KNOW 9/11 WASN"T STAGED u crazy people who say bush is a neocon and responsible for 9.11 should go play in traffic
do u have a link about this asbestos thing--i dont want any theorist sites saying 9.11 was staged

for a great deal only for someone to acquire cancer from asbestos years down the road from the insulation?
Problems such as these happen more than you think and it's confusing!

I am designing a cancer website, How do I get people to read it? I thought about the paid submission to search engines and heard that they are a rip off. Please take a look at the site and let me know what you think. http://www.mrchecker.com

I'm planning on visiting an old, rundown building with several friends. I'm concerned about asbestos exposure, as the risk of cancer and other lung issues are prevalent upon being exposed. I don't intend on touching/burning/destroying anything in the building, so as to avoid releasing potential asbestos into the air. Does anyone have any other suggestions as to how I may protect myself? Is it possible to be exposed simply by walking through an old building?

Every year, Canada exports 400,000 tons of asbestos to developing countries. This mineral causes cancer with a vengeance! It's used in buildings, often as an insulator. It hasn't been used in Canada or any other first world country in over thirty years, since it was discovered to be so hazardous. Places like India want it because it's cheap. Canada is and will be responsible for causing millions of cases of cancer in developing countries: A lot more than what North Korea allegedly wants to do with a dirty bomb.
