Oh, swell!

Now my vinyl shower curtain is toxic! Story on KOMO tonight about all the toxins used to make them.

1. Sometimes I wonder if there's anything that ISN'T toxic. n/t

2. You should have smelled the piece of garbage I bought called a MEMORY FOAM TOPPER for my bed!

Actually, we bought two of them.

The first one was in the grandkids room "airing out" for nine days. I thought I would vomit every time I smelled it. (Back to Costco.)

The second one, also from Costco, was supposed to "air out" in a couple of days in the GARAGE. After six days, I screamed at my husband to remove it OR ELSE.

The Costco people were very nice. Seems viscoelastic foam just stinks to high heaven. I'm not willing to wait until I have bronchial problems and God-knows-what-else!

Thanks for your post.

Cordially,

3. I saw that story too

I must say, it was fairly unclear about what you COULD buy, and where.

4. That's KOMO TV for you.

Good ol' Dan "helmet hair" Lewis, Repuke bastard that he is. Fisher broadcasting... same folks that bring you KKK-VI 570 radio all hate, all the time.

5. Ikea, Target, Penney's and Macy's

all sell non-vinyl curtains. Often they're made out of cotton and are cheaper than vinyl.
