It seems like everybody who wants to use leaded
gas can find a "TOTALLY CONVINCING" study somewhere
that "PROVES" they are right. Well, studies can
prove anything if you decide on a viewpoint first
and then go shopping for studies.

Proven where? More importantly, define dangerous?
Some chemicals in some gasolines are not so healthy
to rub all over your hands or to soak your clothing in.
But that does not necessarily translate to being
less healthy to the atmosphere when burned and
released, which is what really matters to most
people who aren't gas tank repair guys.
Lead sucks. Frankly, we've been without it forever,
and I don't see the massive automotive carnage that
the british auto press seems to like portray.
Accept it, move on.
