Gary, We learned about this one almost 13 years ago with the first baby... My wife inadvertently went through about a pot of coffee while on the phone (long distance) with a rarely seen friend. In a way, the results of that were much worse than passing on a glass of wine or two!! Since neither one was used to that much coffee, in that short a period, it was unpleasant, but educational. From an engineering perspective: it was a very conclusive test!

Here in the US, awhile back, a woman was suing the liquor industry because she gave birth to a fetal alcohol syndrome child. Apparently, nobody in their right mind would assume that consuming a fifth of whiskey a day could be harmful to a developing fetus making the liquor industry patiently and damnably negligent in not putting warning labels on the bottles. (We got them now thank God!) During the coverage of the trial, and I don't remember the context, but the issue of passing nastiness to infants who were being breast fed was also brought up. While I didn't hear the end of this I often have wondered that if that was true, and this woman's case had merit (her lawyer took it up didn't he?) then the logical extension would be that mothers milk should come with a warning. Soooooo.... Just what the heck will this label look like, and even more importantly, just where are they going to put it so that people, can easily read it!!!!!

Is there a similar Directive for health and safety signs for >the general public? Whoo! The mind boggles! You mean with like people with "exclamation point in triangle" tattoos on various portions of the anatomy? Or biohazard labels on the door of the kids' rooms? Judging from some of the ANSI Z535 safety labels I see in the catalogs, the Human Warning Labels would be interesting indeed. .... =] Cheers!
