The magazine article did talk about the case of one man who came close to dying
just from cutting up some pressure treated timbers.  It took the doctors quite
awhile to figure out what was wrong with him since they don't see much arsenic
poisoning.  However, his situation must have been unique in some way since
people cut this stuff up everyday and you never hear of anyone getting poisoned
from it.
