   Well, we all know how trustworthy the corporations making the stuff   
   are, when it comes to testing and to reporting health side effects.   
      
   Their track record on handling waste products accumulated in   
   the manufacture of the 'forever' plastics is also pristine, not   
   to mention their stellar attitiude to employee long-term health and   
   plant environmental controls/litigation.   
      
   Don't worry.
