Hello Clayarters,
I noticed a lot of concern with safety and health issues in the
listserve. I would like to recommend the newsletter,'Art Hazards News'
produced by the Center for Safety in the Arts, out of New York City.
It is published four times a year and covers the
hazards,precautions,goverment regulations,lawsuits,and other topics
related to hazards in the visual and performing arts,museums,and school
arts programs. The cost is $24.00 for a 1 year subscription. I urge all
to check out the homepage, it's full of valuable information.

A few headlines from Monona's January news letter that some may find
interesting.
Welder wins verdict in case linking Manganese fumes to Parkinsonism.
Barium X-ray solutions (contaminated with soluble Barium compounds) kill 15
in Brazil.
Vassar fined for violating EPA waste regulations.
Nickel causes 12% of British contact Dermatitis cases.
No need to panic - just understand the materials you are using so you can
limit your exposures or at least know what to expect if you are over
exposed.
