Can anyone believe you are just asking about arsenic exposure? You
challenge my statement, then you agree with me? I was writing about
arsenic in ground water and you want to deprecate my character for that?
OK.

If you want to expand the parameters of your search, why don't you
include Googling arsenic and flying saucers, my identity challenged
little friend? Who are we today, Persephone, Queen of the Underworld and
Goddess of Spring, or Aspasia, the brothel keeper and harlot?

ALL RIGHT! Don't forget to hold your breath.
While she is quiet, you might Google
http://minerals.usgs.gov/minerals/mflow/d00-0195/
where with nice color graphs, it shows that we have been dragging
arsenic, in the form of treated lumber into our back yards for years,
until 2003. A lot of children's playground equipment is made with
treated lumber which contaminates their hands, and as children do, there
hands end up in their mouths. Not good. Agriculture is another source of
arsenic, from pesticides to animal feed(???!). If your aquifer, is
contaminated by a land fill that could be another source of asenic.
I'm not sure what the military use of arsenic would be, they already
have "depleted uranium" to play with, but it certainly would be a
consideration (especially when you think of all the perchlorate (rocket
fuel) that has found its' way into our lettuce). Then, of course,
there is always the Roswell connection.

You know it's not really research when you predetermine the
outcome and then only use facts that sup****t your position.
QED my tuchus.
