The Gas Contains Lead

The Gas Contains Lead by beforethecoffee.
It used to be that gas was deadly, now it's just socially unacceptable.

"Contains Lead" is the warning - Lead was added to gasoline as an anti-knock agent and to improve octance. It was phased out, if memory serves, sometime in the 70's but the soil adjacent to old roads still has higher levels of lead. So now you've been warned, don't eat any of the dirt next to old roads.

Lead is not that bad for you. I used to suck on lead paint chips all all all all the time!
