Kadiera's Playground Cute but Evil - it averages out

Barry and I removed all of the typical plastic baby bottles from our registry this weekend, due to ongoing reports like this:

OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canada intends to become the first country to ban the import and sale of some types of plastic baby bottles because they contain a chemical that the government says could harm infants and toddlers.
[...]
"Although our science tells us that exposure levels to newborns and infants are below the levels that cause effects, we believe that the current safety margin needs to be higher... It is better to be safe than sorry."

U.S. firm Nalgene, a major producer of baby bottles, said on Friday it would phase out the use of bisphenol A, also known as BPA, although it also said the products were safe.

"We continue to believe that Nalgene products containing BPA are safe for their intended use. However, our customers indicated they preferred BPA-free alternatives and we acted in response to those concerns," Steven Silverman, the firm's general manager said in a statement.

Note that the US government, while acknowledging that the problem cannot be ruled out, is not yet banning the substance.
