CPSIA

The Consumer Products Safety Improvement Act has the right all up in arms. A Business Week blog talks a bit about it here from the handmade toy angle. (It was just the first thing I googled.) I'm hearing about all kinds of unintended consquences...the weirdest of which is essentially making the sale of any book published before 1985 subject to fines because of some health issue.

I have no idea if any of the gripes are true or just alarmist but, if true, Congress needs to fix. Oh, I need to acknowledge that Pres. Bush signed it into law.

Apparently the first lawsuits were filed today, the law having gone into effect on 2/10.
