Toxic Vapors Seeping Up From Underneath Google BuildingsFebruary 22, 2013 8:42 A

(what a goober state)

MOUNTAIN VIEW (CBS SF) — One of Silicon Valley’s dirty secrets is coming back to haunt Google with toxic vapors.

TCE, or trichloroethylene vapors were detected at the company’s offices in Mountain View.

Google’s buildings QD6, and QD7, which sit on North Whisman road sit on top of what used to be Fairchild Semiconductor, Intel, Raytheon, and other computer chip makers.

The problem began when those chip makers dumped thousands of gallons of the toxic solvent into the ground, contaminating the water.

When Google moved in, they installed state of the art filters, and conducted rigorous air quality testing.

The normal range of TCE is five micrograms per cubic meter.

Readings as high as 8 micrograms per cubic meter were found in the Google buildings.

Employees were exposed for several months, but the EPA says it takes decades of exposure to cause problems.

Google released a statement, saying “The health and safety of our employees is Google’s number one priority, and we take several proactive measures to ensure the healthiest indoor air environments possible”.

The scars of human evolution.

Because we evolved we bear a lot of major problems that plague us daily. Our large brains barely navigate the birth canal. We have ridiculous spines prone to problems and terrible arches (a consequence of our bi-pedalism)-and on and on and on...

I think you would enjoy this! Robert Price hosts Frank Zindler in a question and answer which sheds some light and confirms the research over the last couple of centuries on the mythology of Jesus. Zindler at one point is asked about his degree of certainty in the complete non-historicty of Jesus. He describes how his views changed from near certainty OF his existence in 1980 to the complete opposite after years of honest investigation and sincere research. Such things as the non-existence of Nazareth, Capernaum, and so forth played a part!!

No Jesus of Nazareth without a Nazareth! No Wizard of Oz without an Oz! And no inhabited Bethleham at that time, either!

How about a Jeus of someplace?! Price interjects...at least we know now why supposedly there was no room for him in the inn! -g-

A pleasant listen while you're attending to something else...
