OK, I had never thought that there was any reason to
believe that there was anything wrong with a
fluoridated drinking supply. But, I have a habit of
exploring viewpoints that I disagree with, so I
thought I'd see if these anti-fluoridation people were
all complete flakes, or simply deluded, or what.
Well, I now have serious doubts about
fluoridation. After dispensing with the obvious
flakes, like the "Fluoride is government mind control"
people, I found some things that were actually useful:
WHY I CHANGED MY MIND ABOUT WATER FLUORIDATION:

The above is about a guy who was the Principal Dental
Officer of Auckland, New Zealand who, while doing
research to become New Zealand's expert on
fluoridation to lead a campaign to promote
fluoridation, came to change his mind completely.
An overview with many references:

WHY EPA'S HEADQUARTERS UNION OF SCIENTISTS OPPOSES
FLUORIDATION:

Fluoridation also appears to be banned in most of
Western Europe:

I'm sure there are people here that know much
more about this stuff than I do, so... Comments
please?
I suppose this doesn't really relate to
transhumanism very well, but what the hell... :-)
