Protocol for the Management of Post-Consumer Paint Appendix D: USEPA News Release: Use of Mercury Compounds in Indoor Latex Paint Eliminated FOR RELEASE: FRIDAY, JUNE 29, 1990 USE OF MERCURY COMPOUNDS IN INDOOR LATEX PAINT TO BE ELIMINATED Al Heier (202) 382-4374 To avoid possible health risks, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced today that the use of mercury compounds in indoor latex paint will be eliminated. In addition, warning labels will be required on all outdoor paint containing mercury stating that the paint is for outdoor use only. Effective on August 20, all further production of paints containing mercury must be labeled exclusively for exterior use. EPA prefers that consumers use paints which do not contain mercury when painting indoor surfaces. To deal with existing stocks of paint containing mercury, the National Paint and Coatings Assn. is working with paint manufacturers to re-label all paints with higher mercury levels (over 200 parts per million) for exterior use only. EPA believes that consumers may continue to use interior paint with lower mercury levels (200 parts per million or less) without unreasonable risk if they follow all label directions, which include ventilating thoroughly during and after use and minimizing exposure to children.

What will first strike you is, that it is a hypothesis which, whether true or false, is not capable of verification by any evidence. For, in order to obtain either circumstantial or testimonial evidence sufficient to prove the eternity of duration of the present state of nature, you must have an eternity of witnesses or an infinity of circumstances, and neither of these is attainable.

The Scientist 6[16]:22, Aug. 17, 1992 PROFESSION Obituaries By Multiple Josef Warkany , known as the father of modern teratology—the study of birth defects—died June 22 at the age of 90 in Clifton, Ohio. Born in Vienna and a graduate of the University of Vienna, Warkany left his homeland in 1931. He settled in Cincinnati, and spent his entire career at the University of Cincinnati's Children's Hospital Research Foundation. Warkany was one of the first pediatricians to focus on the first nine months after conception. He identified the crippling disease of acrodynia and assisted in developing its cure. Acrodynia is a rare fetal disease that is characterized by a pink discoloration of the limbs, hair and teeth loss, hypertension, and weight loss; the disease is sometimes fatal. In the 1940s, Warkany also helped prove that diet and environmental factors are a large part of fetal health. Warkany's best-known work is a 1,300-page pediatric text called Congenital Malformations (Chicago, Year Book Medical Publishers Inc., 1971). “He is a very good example of a person who was really a luminary in his field, but never received major recognition,” says Robert Brent, a pediatrics professor at Philadelphia's Jefferson Medical College and the editor of the journal
