Allo Willy,
my information was drawn from "Le R=E9pertoire Toxicologique de la
Commission de la Sant=E9 & S=E9curit=E9 du Travail de la Province
de Quebec"( our own"OSHA" here in Quebec), A bunch a very
good toxicologists run this database, too bad it is mainly french.
There was no data in english so, I had to translate, which is not
new for me.
