RE: Acetone - Mother's Day - 491
I guess it works on car plastics but it seems weird it wouldn't melt the plastic bottles it's in. Like I think it could melt most car bumpers which are pretty sturdy.
I dunno I'm still concerned about injecting mercury directly into people bloodstreams especially babies and young children.
Like I said there are two different types of mercury, ethylmercury used in the Dtap vaccines to prevent bacteria during processing is a minute amount and leaves the body readily, methylmurcury, the kind found in tuna fish does not leave the body readily therefore is why it causes a problem. All other childhood vaccines are single dose vile therefore there is no risk of contamination and no need for any type of mercury to be involved anymore.
I wonder if you brought the Beauty Secrets Acetone from Sally's Beauty Supply if that would clean the plastic on your car better than the regular store bought acetone....the store bought acetone won't even remove acrylic nails so it does't surprise me it couldn't clean anything.

"In this study, the LD50 of thimerosal in rats was 98 mg/kg"
thimerosal=ethylmercury
That's a lot more toxic than lead! if you go by the acute fatal dosage! Wow!

That was to do studies. They studied rats after giving them each a varied dose several times daily, some got microgram dosages while others got more higher toxic doses.
The whole debate is rather dull and void since ethlymercury has been taken out of all but the dtap vaccines and the amount, like stated is used during the manufacturing of the vaccines to prevent bacterial growth, that amount is barely traceable.
You see the new proposals whereas they are proposing to change the rewards pool to discourage self upvoting, seems they want to try and discourage authors and their Sybil counterparts from ranking in the dough.
Oh wow I guess they did take it out. That's awesome!
"Thiomersal is no longer used in most children's vaccines in the United States, with the exception of some types of flu shots. While exposure to mercury may result in damage to brain, kidneys, and developing fetus, the scientific consensus is that thiomersal has no such effects."

I've been "giving up" my delegations. Thanks for the heads up. I like having a vote that counts though.
Thiomersal and vaccines
Thiomersal (or Thimerosal) is a mercury compound used as a preservative used in some vaccines. Anti-vaccination activists promoting the incorrect claim that vaccination causes autism, have asserted that the mercury in thiomersal is the cause. There is no scientific evidence to support this claim. The idea that thiomersal in vaccines might have detrimental effects originated with anti-vaccination activists and was sustained by them and especially through the action of plaintiffs' lawyers.The potential impact of thiomersal on autism has been investigated extensively.
Sort of disheartening to see them continually make moves that undermine the small fish, they act like it's nothing but nothing is about all small fish have. What you don't see or never will is go up against those with high sp who on a continual basis abuse the platform, look at the kind of power it took to come together to deal with Haijin or whatever his name was, corporate didn't have anything to do with bringing that in line.
I think it's a little bit over-regulated but oh well. Hopefully it works out in the end. I would like to see my Steem worth $1,000 a piece someday.
This assumes that the attempt to reign him in wasn't theater to create the illusion of decentralization (which I don't believe is possible to achieve regardless). When the whales flag rewards away, it redistributes the amount to the rest of the claim on the pool, in effect sending much of the flagged claims back into the hands of the flaggers at payout time.
The longer I am here the clearer it seems this was created as an extraction tool relying on others to give a valuation (buying in) so the creators and friends can extract weekly from their created pool from thin air. After what, 3 years, they are finally out of beta by solving node costs and changing the flag name to downvote and moving the placement. They have spent the minimal necessary to keep this running to extract and camouflage the extraction. I have read others say they are in final stages of exit plan, and imagine it is quite possible. I can't imagine how much Bitcoin etc they own now from their daily extractions, and they are probably ready to play on beaches now and quit dealing with the riff raff.
The bubble seems to be popping as more are dropping out by the day it seems, more being chased off by the PTB as they look for the final changes to extract the little currency left before it implodes.
Of course, for the many decent people I have met here, I hope for their sake I am wrong. But my gut tells me I'm not.
You are probably close to right. I think the ship has sailed and now docked for the platform as far as mainstreaming more players into the fold on a lower level basis, that's why I think the push for investors rather then a push to join a social media platform where you can make money has unfolded. When Justineh said a couple weeks ago in a blog, "let’s stay away from “make lots of money” as it’s not really realistic and sets expectations that lead to let down and possibly people leaving in the long run.", it showed the reality has set in for them.
