My associate Golda Starr is president of www.FluorideDetective.com. On July 20, 2011, we submitted notice to Everett that the silicofluoride it adds to drinking water (which flows to my house in Lynnwood) is the cheap, industrial grade, toxic-waste version of fluoride, that it contains lead and arsenic, and that it leaches lead from pipes. See: http://fluoride-class-action.corn/everett-2/notice-to-everett-7-20-11 http://fluoride-class-action.com/everett-2/notice-to-everett-8-3-2011 We have made a prima facie case that fluoridation is ineffectual to reduce tooth decay and harmful to health in many ways. Nevertheless, you have not voted to put this matter on the agenda nor to hold hearings on it. At the City Council meeting on September 21 respected Council Member Drew Nielson made his best attempt to poke holes in our case. Council Member Nielsen said that Golda and I had misstated the facts about the National Kidney Foundation. He said that we were wrong when we stated that the National Kidney Foundation had withdrawn its endorsement of drinking water fluoridation, because, he said, the National Kidney Foundation had never endorsed fluoridation in the first place. He said that because of our errors we had lost credibility with the City Council.
