A plea for pity on Nalgene
Chad Hedstrom writes via BoingBoing:Before you run Nalgene out of buisness, you should know there are TWO kinds of Nalgene bottles - a somewhat transparent white bottle made of tupperware-type plastic - this one is SAFE, and another of the same shape, but made with the death-plastic polycarbonate lexan. To clairify, I've included a handy-dandy graphic you can throw up on your web page, so people don't needlessly freak out.
These reports have been circulating for some time, so I don't think we bloggers can claim responsibility if Nalgene goes out of business. They have a responsibility to defend the safety of their products. If they cannot, then perhaps they don't deserve to be in business. Also, it's not just Nalgene making these bottles. I see generic versions at my local Walgreens.
