[Publib] lead in toys

[Michael Golrick]

The CPSC has "stayed" the implementation -- as it applies to books --
for a year. See their web site here:

And ALA's site: http://www.wo.ala.org/districtdispatch/?p=1713

Please clarify for me when you say "cooler heads have 
prevailed".   Is there some new news that I have not yet heard?   The 
last I heard is that this proposed legislation was still alive.

I will look forward to whatever news you may have.

Thanks,

Paul
