Lead Poisoning!!!

All you cable dawgs from back in the day remember smelting lead with just a pair of gloves??? Do you have shaking hands or tremors? frequent headaches? do your eyes jump? numbness in feet or hands? Well I have spoke to a Doctor here in Anchorage that is attributing this to working with lead. He did a boatload of testing and the only conclusion he came up with is lead. I am contacting Senator Stevens to see if he will sponsor any kind of resolution or?? into the Senate Armed Services Committee. I realize that our numbers are small when compared to things like Viet Nam and Agent Orange, But that may work to our advantage. GOAL: to get the VA to recognize this is an issue and to offer treatment or compensation... If you feel like you have had or are experiencing any ill effects from our days in telecom please reply as this post will be a part of my pakage to Sen. Stevens.
