Aside... CA legislation I REALLY hope passes!

I have read quite a lot about lately about the risks/benefits of fire retardants in baby items. I have come to believe that the benefits do not justify the risks. There is proposed legislation in CA that would change the requirements in CA, which would, in effect, change them for the rest of the US, since manufacturers tend to manufacture to the most stringent codes, which, in this case, would be the codes in CA. I would LOVE to be able to buy products that have not been treated with flame retardants, so I hope this legislation or similar manages to pass. Click on the title of this post to read the LA Times piece that spurred these comments.
