Directly beneath the paragraph SUBMAN just cited:

That said, DU is a heavy metal; and like lead, nickel, and other heavy metals, it is chemically toxic when consumed in large quantities, especially harming the kidneys. However, studies looking at likely exposures to DU during and after battles have found that its effects on the kidneys of soldiers and civilians are mild and transient.

You seem to missed the keywords 'LARGE QUANTITIES' or something. Which basically means you must eat an entire DU rd for breakfast.

Duh! Same effect from eating a breakfast platter of Nickel.

Well, you said "basically, you can have DU rounds for breakfast withlut [sic] any ill effect!" and that is blatantly false.

Somehow u missed the sarcasm! :p

You know, I've been thinking. Of course the left doesn't like DU rds. It is scary because it represents technology. Have you notice that the left doesn't like coal, cars, gas, electricity, nukes, mechanization, resource gathering, or even light bulbs? I could go on with this list all day, but one thing is clear:

The left is the modern equivelent of the Amish people! Dare to tell me I am wrong!
