getting behind

If I'd been paying attention yesterday like reader Linda was, I would have learned that researchers from the University of Washington analyzed six best-selling air fresheners and laundry products, and here's my favorite quote:

"Nearly 100 volatile organic compounds were emitted from these six products, and none were listed on any product label. Plus, five of the six products emitted one or more carcinogenic 'hazardous air pollutants,' which are considered by the Environmental Protection Agency to have no safe exposure level," Steinemann said.

So, air fresheners and laundry products will kill you, but now it says so in the mainstream media.
